We all know that in every foodie’s Instagram feed, it’s incomplete without one amazing shot of a cheese pull. There’s just something about melty, gooey, stretchy cheese that stirs a fire within the bellies of even the lactose intolerant, compelling everyone to test our limits of just how much we can consume till we break.
In the spirit of breaking our limits of cheese-consumption, here’s a guide to 10 ultra cheesy dishes that will make you melt (or test your level of lactose intolerance)!
#1 CHEESE STORY MOOKATA BUFFET – CHEESE DIP
Looking for that Instagram-worthy cheese pull shot? Look no further than Cheese Story Mookata’s Buffet. They offer a creamy cheese dip that is a mix of nacho cheese and mozzarella for that maximum stretch factor. It goes perfectly with their plethora of juicy meats and sweet seafood, giving it a richer and more satisfying taste. Did we mention they serve free flow oysters?

#2 LOOF – BCM GRILLED CHEESE
Where fusion meets bar grub – Loof is the place to be.

Loof is also home to a special sandwich – their Bak Chor Mee Grilled Cheese, made with sourdough bread, saucy mushrooms, pork mince and ooey gooey cheese. You can definitely toast to the weekend with this cheesy dish.

#3 MERCI MARCEL – RAVIOLES DE ROYANS
Tucked away in the streets of Tiong Bahru is Merci Marcel, a Parisian-inspired al fresco diner with a spacious, tropical-themed interior. Overshadowed by some of their popular mains is their Ravioles de Royans. Bite-sized spinach ravioli pasta is filled with Tete de Moine cheese and drenched in a creamy white sauce and topped with even more Tete de Moine. These little pockets of pasta are cheesy, creamy and fresh in the most decadent way possible. They also have a second branch at Club Street, boasting similar tropical vibes.

#4 SEOUL SHIOK – ARMY STEW WITH CHEESE
If you’re craving something with a bit of a slight spicy kick but still want that melty cheese goodness, Seoul Shiok’s got you covered with their Army Stew with Cheese. The spicy stew is chocked full of ingredients familiar to budaejjigae fans – pork belly, rice cakes, assorted mushrooms, spam, instant ramen and baked beans. They even top their stew with a slice of cheese. Hungry souls will be glad to know they also provide free soup refills should you run out!

#5 SHAKE SHACK – SHROOM BURGER
Probably one of the most highly raved openings in Singapore in 2019 so far was the opening of Shake Shack’s very first outlet at Jewel Changi in April. While they serve up some seriously sinful beef burgers and local-inspired creations, their Shroom Burger is unbeatable in terms both of cheese and wow factor. Just a bite into the deep-fried Portobello mushroom patty will reveal the piping-hot liquid gold inside. They were definitely hyped for good reason.

#7 POTATO HEAD FOLK – TRUFFLE CHEESE FRIES
You haven’t tried loaded fries until you’ve had these Truffle Cheese Fries. Located in a four-storey heritage building is Potato Head Folk – home to Studio 1939 cocktail bar and Three Buns Burgers & Cocktails. Sporting tropical-themed old-style décor and ambient lights, the place is a hipster haven. They’re well-known for their burgers and their signature Naughty Fries, a fusion of fries and chilli crab, but their sister dish – Truffle Cheese Fries – is also a stunner with creamy cheese sauce, shaved truffles, chives and even more truffle aioli on the side. Regular cheese fries won’t look the same after having this.

#8 TOBY’S THE DESSERT ASYLUM – LAVA CHEESE BURGER
Goodbye regular cheese slices in burgers and say hello to oozing lava in the form of nacho cheese. TOBY’s has recently added a unique twist to a seemingly normal-looking burger and it comes in a syringe. Thick nacho cheese is injected into the burger, creating a waterfall of gooey cheesy mess. The burger itself contains a juicy meat patty and comes with a bed of crispy spiced fries. The cheese goes well with them too! A burger can’t possibly get any cheesier than this.

#9 TONKICHI – CHEESE KASANE KATSU
When Tonkichi comes to mind, quality comes with. Insanely juicy pork loin has melted cheese sandwiched in between, making it an umami bomb with a crunch. Though fried to an inviting golden brown, Tonkichi’s cheese katsu is not overly greasy when you bite into it. What’s not to love when there’s both savoury cheese and tender meat in one dish?
