With National Day just around the corner - find out where the best places to go that night are. Indulge in a wonderful meal and catch the glorious fireworks as they light up the night sky.

There's nothing quite like a spectacular fireworks display to cap off a perfect evening, and for National Day celebrations this year, we've found the best places for you to have a wonderful meal and to have the best seats in the house for the fireworks too. 

On the ground, right by the Singapore River, there are two choices - Sol Tasca and Boathouse, both of which are right in the thick of the parade action. You'll be close enough to feel like you've got front-row seats, without having to wrestle with the crowds. Sol Tasca has a range of Spanish tapas and sangria for a more casual, relaxed time as the parade ‘marches' past. Boathouse, in its heritage building, is presenting a feast from Executive Chef Jonathan Koh at its roof top area [prel.ude] so you won't miss a second of all the action.

For those who don't want to miss the aerial displays then you must call now to book a seat at Ku De Ta. The restaurant sits atop the Marina Bay Sands hotel at the SkyPark and will have a view of the parade area, plus fighter jets, parachuters and Chinooks, that will take your breath-away. Executive Chef Dan Seagall has put together a delightful multi-course menu that features dishes with Asian twists.

If the National Day Parade puts you in the mood for a barbecue type of moment to you, then Brunch at Pan Pacific is perfect. The al fresco area is casually chic and you'll be able to catch the fireworks with a grilled chicken wing in one hand, and a beer in the other. For those who prefer a little more comfort while dining, Greenhouse at the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore has a buffet spread full of local delights such as nghoh hiang, crispy pork belly and Nonya kueh. Sip on their ‘Singapore Spirit' cocktail too, priced at $18++, as you admire the fireworks in the distance.
