Food Opera Reopens at ION Orchard | A Taste of 1970s Orchard Road

Food Opera at ION Orchard has reopened after a major refurbishment, bringing a taste of 1970s Orchard Road into one of Singapore's most modern shopping malls. The new Food Opera features a collection of food stalls and heritage food brands presented within an old-school streetscape inspired by the Orchard Road of the past. Along the way, you'll find shopfronts inspired by traditional businesses such as a TCM shop, optical shop, bookstore, record store, photo studio, movie theatre, pawn shop, post office, bank, cobbler and tailor. The food stalls include established Singapore names alongside newer concepts, while the Orchid Gallery showcases homegrown brands. This video takes a look around the newly reopened Food Opera, from its 1970s Orchard Road-inspired surroundings to the food, stalls and details that make up the new space.
