New kid-on-the-block at Mohamed Sultan
Road is Lé FUSION that serves modern Chinese
dishes with Western influences. The restaurant
is the brainchild of Chef Bernard Tan and his
wife, Mrs Catherine Tan who both decided
to fuse their favourite dishes into one place.
Among the many bars and concepts along Mohamed
Sultan Road, Lé FUSION stands out with its colourful
and modern setting featuring red pendant lights,
graffiti-esque pop art and neon light signs.

The dishes at Lé FUSION are unique and will not be
found anywhere else. Each dish, as Chef Tan shares,
has its own story and tells a tale of his travels.
