Singapore - Some celebrations don’t need grand gestures to feel special — they just need the right company. My birthday lunch with Edmund at BYD by 1826 was one of those moments: simple, thoughtful, and genuinely meaningful.
Located next to the BYD car showroom, the restaurant carries a modern, cool vibe that feels relaxed yet polished. Modern setting blends seamlessly with the sleek automotive space beside it. It’s the kind of place that works well for a casual catch-up, a business lunch, or — in my case — a quiet birthday celebration.
What really stood out was their affordable three-course lunch menu, priced at just $9.90. In today’s dining scene, that alone feels like a pleasant surprise. The menu offered a good range of options, keeping things simple but well thought out.
For my main, I chose the chicken thigh. It was well-cooked, tender, and flavourful; comforting without being heavy. Edmund opted for the tilapia fish, which was slightly oily due to the butter. Both mains were paired with a fresh vegetable and potato salad, adding a crisp and refreshing contrast to the proteins.
To round off the meal, we enjoyed dessert cake, a sweet finish that completed the three-course experience nicely. It wasn’t overly rich, making it a perfect ending without leaving us too full.
Beyond the food, what made this lunch truly special was the gesture behind it. Edmund treated me to celebrate my birthday, and I genuinely appreciated the thoughtfulness. There was no fuss, no extravagance — just good food, good conversation, and sincere friendship.
