Grilled cheese sandwiches are a gooey, glorious affair, and these eight places in Singapore offer the best of the experience.
Get them from cafes like Amber Ember, which does it jaffle-style, and Punch serves theirs with tomato soup. Over at Wakey Wakey, it’s cheeses of all stripes plus a lick of marmite.
Then there are delis and bakeries that specialise in the sammie. Park Bench Deli slips blue cheese into their rendition, while Micro Bakery opts for smoked ricotta and raclette. Korio keeps the Empire State in mind with American cheese and cheddar, and Breakfast Grill puts together a blend of five cheeses and garlic.

Punch is a cafe that hits above its weight when it comes to food. The Grilled Cheese Sandwich is one example, which is a medley of sweet emmental, nutty parmesan and creamy brie. A side of tomato soup lets you dip your sandwich in for more umami.
Daily, 8am to 6pm
Wakey Wakey doesn’t hold back on what’s in its Grilled Cheese Toastie: “Cheese, chiss, chizz, cheesus, brioche & some lame salad.” However you name your dairy, it’s a gooey, melty time with a zing of mustard and zip of caramelised onion marmite. Contrary to what they say, the greens don’t look so bad either.

Weekends, 9am to 6pm
