El Chido: the quiet hours worth booking

An award-winning Mexican rooftop bar over the pool, with Marina Bay in the background: ceviche, tostadas, elotes and margaritas. Adults only after 6pm.

Everyone fights for the same two hours at dinner. The trick at El Chido is the stretch in between, when the kitchen is fresh, the room is calm, and the bill is up to 40% lighter because you booked the timing nobody else thought to.

When the deals hit

Weekdays: 40% off from 12pm to 2pm, 30% off from 2pm to 4pm, 20% off from 4pm to 5pm. Weekends run one tier lower (up to 30% off).

Each discounted timing holds about 5 tables. When they're gone, they're gone for the day.

What to order

Start with the crowd favourites: Marinated Chilled Spanish Octopus, White Fish Ceviche, "La Papa" baked potato. The full menu with prices sits on the booking page, so you can plan the damage before you go.

How the booking works

1. Pick a timing on the El Chido booking page. Orange timings carry the deals.
2. Book free. No deposit, no card, about ten seconds.
3. Scan the Eventful QR at the entrance when you arrive. That locks your discount for the whole table's bill, food and drinks, and pays you 10 Eventful Coins per diner (200 coins = $1 off any future bill).

Cancellation is free up to 15 minutes before your timing, so booking early costs you nothing.
