Just two days ago, Rockstar Games confirmed that GTA 6 has been delayed to 26 May 2026—a far cry from its originally targeted autumn 2025 release window. Excruciating news, I know. But at least we can take solace in the fact that the developers over at Rockstar haven’t had to crunch their souls into oblivion just to get the game out on time. And, on the bright side, we now have a specific date to circle on our calendars—even if it mean we have to twiddle our thumbs for another year. Or… do we?

The Zone of Interest, directed by Jonathan Glazer, is probably the most boring film I’ve ever seen. For a film about the Holocaust, there are no real plotlines, no action, no catharsis—it’s observational cinema. The film centres around the life of an Auschwitz commandant and his family, whose house sits just beside a concentration camp, separated by a concrete wall.

When Virgil Abloh passed in 2021, the world lost a visionary, one who pushed boundaries in the realm of contemporary fashion, art, culture, and architecture. But like all the greats, his legacy is best defined through their lasting impact. During his time as the founder of Off-White, Abloh mentored a select few employees working under him—protégés if you will. Among them was his first design assistant, Samuel Ross.

It was half past seven on a Wednesday evening. The sun teased its retreat into the horizon as if intimidated by the flow of office workers spilling out from the CBD’s towering buildings. I was nestled somewhere in the midst of it all, with Google Maps in hand and a growing hunger in my stomach. Still absorbed in my phone as I tracked my route to Telok Ayer’s buzziest new pasta joint, I suddenly came to a stop.

It came from when I was a small boy. I had this sense that nature was mysterious and there was a secret world there. I didn’t have the key to go through that door, but I knew something was behind it—a whole new world. Much of my childhood was about finding people who knew more than me, who I could go into the woods with and learn about nature. I don’t really have a style. I don’t think about it; I think about concept first. Then, I consider how it can be integrated into culture in the best way.

There are two ceramic mugs of coffee sitting on this table for two. Beside them, a plastic cup of yuzu soda—translucent, fizzy, sweating under the city’s indifferent humidity. Edward Russell has chosen both—one hot and bitter, the other, cold and sweet. I can’t remember ever sharing coffee with someone who drinks two things at once, but the thought slips away as quickly as it comes. Our conversation pulls me back in. My coffee has cooled down enough, I take a sip of it and lean forward.

You’ve read the title, you know what to expect. With great ambience and even better food, these restaurants have earned Esquire Singapore’s stamp of approval (to be taken with a pinch of salt, so to speak). Here’s a lowdown of some of their standout dishes that made us sit up, slow down, and savour every bite as of late. Dig in. A restored 19th-century warehouse, arched doorways, an outdoor terrace, a sweeping view of Robertson Quay’s waterfront.
