新加坡的5個時髦好去處

On the southern edge of Singapore’s Chinatown, Keong Saik Road has seen many changes. It morphed from a residential area in the early 20th century to a famous red-light district in the 1960s, with many of its three-story Art Deco shop-houses doubling as brothels. Lately, the road has become one of the city’s trendiest places, especially humming between Kreta Ayer Road and Neil Road. The stretch is full of au courant bars, stores, hotels and restaurants. Hints of yesteryear remain, however, including a few discreet brothels identified only by bold red street numbers next to their doorways.

在新加坡牛車水的南部邊緣，恭錫路(Keong Saik Road)發(fā)生了很多變化。它從20世紀(jì)初的一個居民區(qū)，逐漸變成了60年代著名的紅燈區(qū)，很多三層的裝飾派藝術(shù)風(fēng)格的街屋兼作妓院。近來，這條路成了該市最時尚的地方之一，在水車路(Kreta Ayer Road)和尼路(Neil Road)之間的這一段尤其繁榮，時髦的酒吧、商店、酒店和餐廳林立。但昔日的痕跡還在，包括幾家只能借助門前的大紅色門牌號碼才能辨認(rèn)出來的低調(diào)妓院。

Neon Pigeon

霓虹鴿(Neon Pigeon)

Now two years old, this industrial-chic space with irreverent touches — exposed pipes, marbled concrete floors, giant murals of pigeons, one with Mike Tyson — is perpetually packed and serves contemporary izakaya-style (think tapas) dishes.

這里已開業(yè)兩年，走工業(yè)時尚的路線，風(fēng)格粗獷：裸露在外的管道、有大理石花紋的混凝土地面、巨幅鴿子壁畫，其中一幅上面是邁克·泰森(Mike Tyson)。小店供應(yīng)居酒屋風(fēng)格(想想塔帕斯)的美食，永遠(yuǎn)人滿為患。

Uniting five well-preserved shop-houses built in 1929 — hence the name — this stylish property with 32 individually decorated rooms mixes contemporary technology (smartphones with free data and free international calls to a number of countries) with vintage furnishings including Eames and Arne Jacobsen chairs, and old barber seats for a bit of whimsy. The two Terrace Suites have decks with outdoor bathtubs.
