Girl dinner has become a delightful way to embrace simplicity, celebrating the enjoyment of small, uncomplicated pleasures without the need for overthinking. But let’s be honest, sometimes you crave more than just a handful of crackers and a glass of wine. Every so often, you want an experience that combines great food, a fun vibe, a place where you can unwind, sip on something seasonal, and truly enjoy your time together. Enter Gallery by Chele. It’s the kind of place where you can have an actual girl dinner—one that’s beautifully crafted, thoughtfully prepared, and far more satisfying than anything you can put together from your pantry.

Gallery by Chele’s dedication to its craft has earned it a well-deserved spot on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants extended list at No. 72.
