This week, GRAZIA Singapore invites you to leans into the spirit of curiosity, spotlighting experiences that let you shift gears without leaving the city. Think of it as a mini reset: a chance to eat well, catch a film that transports you somewhere softer, and dip into a touch of holiday sparkle before the season rushes in.
Start with a collaboration between MO Bar, Anju, and Su Ma Jakarta that turns Friday night into a sensory and culinary journey across East Asia. Switch pace with the French Film Festival, an easy way to revive a sense of wonder, and continue your foray into French art with the National Gallery’s extensive showcase of French Impressionism. Whatever you choose, consider this your invitation to slow down, look around, and make the city feel new again.
Friday Night: Experience Anju, MO Bar And Su Ma Jakarta’s Love Letter To Asian Mixology And Cuisine
Kick off the weekend with a collaboration that celebrates Asian flavours through three distinct lenses. Hosted at contemporary Korean restaurant Anju, Singapore’s MO Bar is bringing us a series of cocktails inspired by Korean flavours and seasons, paired with a hearty but refined sharing menu by Su Ma Jakarta. Each collaborator in this tribute to East Asian cuisine and mixology offers their own take, yet together they form a quietly cohesive night out for anyone who likes their Fridays anchored in food, conversation, and novelty.
The MO Bar x Su Ma Jakarta x Anju collaboration will be held from 14-15 November at Anju, 62 Tras Street, Singapore 079001.
Saturday Afternoon: Find Your Joie De Vivre At The French Film Festival
This weekend, the Embassy of France is offering us the kind of immersive escape into French culture that doesn’t require a passport. The 41st edition of the French Film Festival returns from 13 November onwards, offering a thoughtfully curated selection of films designed to showcase the best of French cinema. This weekend’s slate of films includes The Richest Woman In The World, a sharply compelling drama starring Isabelle Huppert, as well as sci-fi thrillers Alpha and The Residence. This year’s edition of the festival also branches out with free screenings in heartland locations and movies by the beach at Sentosa.

Sunday Afternoon: Ponder Modernism At Southeast Asia’s Largest French Impressionism Exhibition
If your Sunday calls for something quieter, the National Gallery’s showcase of French Impressionism will provide exactly the right counterbalance. Into The Modern was curated in collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, and is set to become the largest exhibition of French Impressionism in Southeast Asia. The stunning exhibition traces the evolution of light and colour through some of impressionism’s defining works by Degas, Monet, Cezanne, and more—most of which have never before been displayed in Singapore. It’s an unparalleled opportunity to experience the beauty of impressionism up close.
Into The Modern runs from 14 November to 1 March 2026 at the National Gallery Singapore, 1 St Andrew’s Road, Singapore 178957.
