CraveMatch: find what to eat in Singapore

Choose cuisine, mood, budget and location in CraveMatch to explore restaurant matches in Singapore. Check each result and its current reward conditions.

By TasteVue Team

It's 7:15pm, everyone's hungry, and someone in the group chat has said "anything lah" for the third time.

Singapore has plenty of places to eat. Narrowing them down to somewhere that fits your group, budget and location is the problem CraveMatch helps solve.

Five rounds, three picks

Cuisine. Mood. Type of place. Budget. Location. Five questions to narrow your choices.

Explore restaurant matches based on your picks, including location and opening-hours data. Check the venue’s current hours before travelling; listings can change. If the picks do not fit, try the rematch option shown in the app.

What it's actually doing

1. What cuisine are you craving? Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Western, Thai, Local, or the full list. Pick Surprise Me if choosing the cuisine is the problem.

2. What kind of place fits your mood? Date night, hidden gem, quiet & cosy, good for groups, solo dining, family-friendly, pet-friendly, Instagrammable. This round does the most work — it's the part Google can't do.

3. What type of place? Restaurant, cafe, dessert, bar, quick bite, casual dining. Dinner and 3pm cake are two different searches.

4. What's your budget? Under $20, $20–50, $50+, or no preference.

5. Where should we search? Near you, a specific area, or let TasteVue decide.

CraveMatch turns your five answers into a structured search against live venue data — location, opening hours, cuisine, ratings, photos. On top of that sit hand-picked lists our editors picked for top date night, pet-friendly, hidden gems, quiet and cosy F&B spots in Singapore.

Partners and reward conditions

If a TasteVue partner fits what you asked for, it goes to the top of your results. We'd rather say that than pretend the ranking is neutral.

A partner only wins the slot when it matches your choices. Reward amounts can differ between picks. Before visiting, check the reward shown on your result and the current dine-and-share conditions in the app. A restaurant recommendation alone is not a completed reward activity.

For an eligible dine-and-share activity, follow the in-app instructions to share your meal on TasteVue Diary. Reward eligibility and validation still apply. Your post can also help another diner decide what to try.

When to use it

Can't Decide? Four people, no decision, everyone being polite. One person runs CraveMatch and it's settled — not because the app is smarter, but because nobody has to be the one who chose.

A new neighbourhood. First time in New Bahru? CraveMatch helps you discover new places and reduce decision fatigue.

Explore eligible rewards. Check a result’s conditions before dining and follow the posting steps shown in the app.

Why CraveMatch

F&B is tough. Rent goes up. Margins were thin to begin with. Manpower is hard to find and harder to keep. A lot of good places in Singapore are running with very little room for error.

The food is usually not the problem. Exposure is. An F&B chain can buy its way in front of you through marketing via ads or influencer marketing. A 12-seat cafe is relying on whoever happens to walk past.

CraveMatch brings those places to you. You get a meal you'd never have found, they get a customer they'd never have reached, and it's the same trip out.
