Kick off the month the French way with a glass in hand at Sips & Sounds, an elegant afterwork hosted by Angra Wine & Spirit at the beautiful terrace of Claudine.

One of Singapore’s most beloved French bistros is entering a new era. Merci Marcel has just opened its sixth restaurant in Serangoon Garden, unveiling a refreshed visual identity that blends modern design with its signature warm, convivial spirit.

Beyond the new look, the venue introduces a dedicated merch corner and even a brand-new mascot, Marcel, because what’s more French than a chic bistro with a charming dog? A perfect excuse to rediscover a classic or experience Merci Marcel for the very first time.

This February also marks a sweet milestone: Pierre Hermé Paris unveils its very first Singapore-exclusive macaron, The Jardin Peranakan. Inspired by local flavours of pandan, coconut and kaya, this creation blends French haute pâtisserie with Southeast Asian heritage.

Infused with pandan juice and layered with creamy kaya ganache, the pale green macaron is hand-painted with a red brushstroke as a subtle tribute to the Singapore flag. At first bite, vanilla and almond give way to floral pandan and toasted coconut, nostalgic yet refined.

A beautiful meeting point between French craftsmanship and local soul, and the beginning of a whole new dialogue between Pierre Hermé and Singapore.
