Jiak Kim House, a modern Asian dining establishment adjacent to Fraser Residence River Promenade, nestled in a restored early 20th-century godown on the banks of the Singapore River, offers a sophisticated dining experience. This beautifully renovated space, once a bustling warehouse storing rice, spices, and rubber, later served as the legendary Zouk nightclub. It has been transformed into an elegant eatery while retaining its theatrical integrity and rich historical character.

The high ceilings showcase exposed timber trusses and handmade bricks, complemented by a sleek marble bar and comfortable rattan furniture. A striking contrast is provided by the wine vault, featuring terracotta brick walls and a cork-lined ceiling. For a more private affair, a dedicated dining room awaits, adorned with glossy blue wall panels, mustard gold upholstery, and wainscotting, subtly referencing Singapore’s colonial past. The restaurant’s design masterfully blends old-world charm with modern elegance, creating a truly unique and memorable dining destination in Singapore’s vibrant culinary landscape. The careful preservation of historical elements alongside contemporary design creates a captivating ambiance. The attention to detail is evident in every aspect, from the carefully chosen materials to the thoughtfully curated atmosphere. Jiak Kim House is more than just a restaurant; it’s a journey through time and a testament to Singapore’s rich heritage.
