The German burger bar Hans Im Glück is pretty well known in Singapore. This restaurant in VivoCity specialises in burgers filled with all sorts of delicious ingredients and sandwiched using sour dough or multi-grain buns. However, they do also serve non-burger items, like Cheese Spätzle (S$21), a home-made egg Emmentaler cheese pasta, and a loaded Bavarian Platter Set For 2 (S$49), filled with assorted sausages and chicken cutlets.
The assortment of burgers you can get are vast. Opt for a beef burger like the titular Hans Im Glück (S$15.90 à la carte, S$19.90 for set), containing parmesan, parma ham, rocket leaves and balsamic creme, or go for a grilled chicken breast burger instead. Feuriger (S$15.90 à la carte, S$19.90 for set) is an option, made with 3 pieces of spicy chicken sausage and mango-mustard sauce.

8. Park Bäckerei
Park Bäckerei is a German pretzel bakery that recently opened within Icon Village in Tanjong Pagar, where it offers authentic German pretzels and bakes for carb enthusiasts to savour.
Park Bäckerei’s pretzels are made using lye — the usage of this ingredient requires a permit from the National Environmental Agency (NEA), meaning that it is rare to find other spots in Singapore that offer similarly authentic German pretzels.
The Plain Pretzel (S$3.90 for 1 piece, S$10.80 for 3 pieces) is the most classic option, with a thick “belly” and crispier, thinner “arms”. Personally, I loved the Cheese Pretzel (S$4.50 for 1 piece, S$12.60 for 3 pieces) and Mini Cheese Pretzels (S$2.50 for 1 piece, S$23.80 for 10 pieces), which were topped with crispy and savoury cheese.
The fan favourite bake that we tried was the Karamel Igel (S$4.40 for 1 piece, S$8.40 for 2 pieces), an adorable hedgehog-shaped bun stuffed with a delicious caramel filling. The fillings reminded me of blonde chocolate, with a sweet and milky fragrance.
