Best late-night dining

Recommended: Mr & Mrs Bund

Late-night and high class, Mr & Mrs Bund's Paul Pairet does late-night fare right.

Open until 4 a.m., Mr & Mrs Bund is by far your best option for late-night, high-end Bund dining.

First, there's the almost surreal Alice in Wonderland décor, which manages to look awesome as well as slightly sinister in the wee hours. Plus, they offer good deals on food, so you can have Paul Pairet's delicious boeuf bourguignon, picnic chicken, foie gras crumble and others from the extensive menu in the early morning hours.

Favorite late-night orders include the cheese plates, which come with imported French cheese and a tangy apple jelly and grapes as an accompaniment.

Carnivores, take note: “They have a great steak, served with the bone. The beef has a great fat-to-lean-meat ratio and very good texture,” says food critic Peipei Yang.

As a capper, Pairet's Lemon & Lemon tart could be the best late-night dessert on the Bund.
