CHIJMES may be over 150 years old, but the grand old dame is looking better than ever with a new-and-improved façade, where part of the boundary wall along Victoria Street has been lowered. The driveway has been refurbished and there’s now a beautiful glass ceiling at the front porch to provide shelter on rainy days. If you haven’t visited in a while, the holiday season is the perfect time to return, as its range of exquisite F&B establishments put out a smorgasbord of festive offerings. Besides, there’s nowhere quite like a former chapel to soak-up the Christmas spirit while you chill out, have fun and enjoy an intimate get-together with family and friends.
