Paradise Classic is a Singapore restaurant concept from Paradise Group, positioned as a modern remake of well-loved local Chinese classics. The idea is to let diners enjoy Singapore's homely, nostalgic flavours in a contemporary setting, with a dedicated culinary team preparing dishes using Chinese cooking techniques that aim to evoke the taste of home-cooked food.
The dining room design leans into that nostalgia, using Peranakan-style tiles, Singapore's representative icons and old-school bamboo chairs to create an atmosphere the brand describes as vibrant yet nostalgic. Paradise Classic operates across several Singapore outlets, including Jewel Changi Airport, Marina Bay Link Mall, Bedok Mall, Parkway Parade, Pasir Ris Mall, Punggol Coast Mall, One Holland Village and The Woodleigh Mall, each working from a menu tailored to that location.
P00Paradise Classic is one of more than a dozen dining concepts under Paradise Group, a Singapore-based F&B company incorporated in 2008 that has grown from a single 25-seat coffee shop, Seafood Paradise, opened in Defu Lane in 2002, into a group operating over 150 restaurants worldwide. Paradise Classic diners can also access Paradise Gourmet Rewards membership, book via reservations, or order delivery through the group's booking and delivery platforms.
Paradise Classic is built around a simple idea: take the well-loved local Chinese dishes Singaporeans grew up with, and give them a modern, comfortable home. It's one of the many dining concepts run by Paradise Group, and it positions itself as the place where 'everyone gets to appreciate Singapore's homely nostalgic flavours in modern times.'
Walk into a Paradise Classic outlet and the design does a lot of the storytelling. Peranakan-style tiles, Singapore's representative icons, and old-school bamboo chairs are woven into the space, aiming to recreate the comfort and familiarity of Singapore culture rather than a purely modern dining room. The brand describes the result as 'vibrant yet nostalgic' — a setting meant to feel both current and rooted in local memory.
On the food side, Paradise Classic works with a dedicated culinary team applying Chinese cooking techniques to dishes meant to evoke home-cooked meals. Among the dishes featured are Sweet & Sour Pork and Prawn Hor Fun — both classic, well-recognised dishes in Singapore's Chinese food culture, reworked here as part of the modern-remake concept. The brand's approach is less about reinventing the cuisine and more about presenting familiar comfort food with a refreshed setting and service style.
Not every Paradise Classic outlet runs the exact same menu. The brand publishes separate menus for different clusters of outlets: one for Jewel Changi Airport and Marina Bay Link Mall, another for Bedok Mall, Parkway Parade, Pasir Ris Mall and Punggol Coast Mall, and a third for One Holland Village and The Woodleigh Mall. Vegetarian dishes appear to be offered at some of these locations but not others, so diners with dietary needs may want to check the specific outlet's menu before visiting.
Promotions play a visible role in how Paradise Classic engages diners. Its 'Irresistible Lunch Sets to Power Your Day' campaign offers Personal Value Lunch Sets aimed at making weekdays easier, while 'Members' Day' runs every Monday with exclusive deals and offers for members. A 'Tea-Time Cravings' promotion offers 40% off for those looking to grab a late lunch or high tea on weekday afternoons — a nod to the more relaxed, in-between-meals dining occasions.
Paradise Classic sits within Paradise Group, a Singapore-based F&B company incorporated in 2008. The group's own story started small: in 2002, founder Eldwin Chua opened Seafood Paradise, a modest 25-seat coffee shop in an industrial stretch of Defu Lane, offering sumptuous, reasonably priced food that drew Singaporean foodies in despite the unglamorous location. That early success led to Taste Paradise, a Cantonese cuisine and dim sum concept, and from there the group expanded into more than a dozen restaurant concepts — Paradise Classic among them — eventually growing to more than 150 restaurants worldwide, alongside a catering arm serving private homes and corporate events.
Paradise Classic outlets can be found across Singapore in Jewel Changi Airport, Marina Bay Link Mall, Bedok Mall, Parkway Parade, Pasir Ris Mall, Punggol Coast Mall, One Holland Village and The Woodleigh Mall. Diners can book a table or order delivery through Paradise Group's online reservation and delivery platforms, and members of the Paradise Gourmet Rewards programme get access to the brand's ongoing promotions, including the Monday Members' Day deals.
