Concierge "Blue Ginger specializes in the distinct local cuisine called Peranakan, a mix of Chinese and Malaysian influences."
Frommer's "The standard belief is that Peranakan cooking is reserved for home-cooked meals and, therefore, restaurants are not as plentiful -- and where they do exist, they are very informal." Full review
Rough Guide "In a smartly renovated shophouse, this trendy Nonya restaurant has become a firm favourite thanks to such dishes as ikan masal asam gulai."
Fodor's "Come to this beautifully restored shophouse for such well-prepared Malaysian/Chinese." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Occupying a restored Chinatown shophouse with antique stained-glass windows, Blue Ginger specializes in the distinct local cuisine called Peranakan, a mix of Chinese and Malaysian influences." Full review

The signature dessert, chendol, a stew of red beans topped with crushed ice, coconut milk, and palm sugar and laced with durian purée, tastes as rich as it sounds—don't miss it.
Time Out "The location in the CBD might explain why its constantly filled with white-collar types and expats looking to get acquainted with the cuisine...food tastes blander than most other Peranakan joints. " Full review
Lonely Planet "Housed in an attractive shophouse, Blue Ginger is one of the few restaurants in Singapore that specialises in Peranakan food." Full review
