The Boiler
Wait, this can't be happening. One whole lobster - for free? The Boiler is spoiling all of us this year with their treat of a Boston lobster with every purchase of Bomdiggity Bag whenever we dine there on our birthdays. Free lobsters aside, The Boiler is a great seafood joint that specialises in piquant Cajun flavours. So, get your whole family out of the house and ready to indulge in a sensational communal dining experience.

Cedele
After hearing this, you'll have no more excuse not to get your birthday cake from Cedele. A bakery cum cafe, Cedele serves up lavish artisanal cakes, amongst other pastries, made with top-notch ingredients that will sweep you off your feet with every mouthful. If you're not already a Cedele member, why are you still hesitating? During their birthday month, all members earn double the rebate of Cedele $-points whenever they spend at this establishment. You know what that means - more cake!

Marché Mövenpick
We all love Marche Movenpick for their crispy potato rostis and golden savoury crepes. But, here's one more reason to love them - they have special birthday treats for all their diners! On your birthday, you will be gifted a Marché card with S$20 credit that can be used on your next visit, if the bill for your table is at least $120. Where else would you want to spend your birthday?

Shin Minori
Did someone say "free buffet"? Yes, your ears aren't kidding around. Shin Minori is spoiling you with a free a-la-carte buffet on your birthday as long as you dine with at least one paying adult. With an extensive menu featuring attractive offerings, you'll be inundated by the waves of sashimi platters, makimono and many more Japanese delights. Munch on their Rocky Temaki for a scrumptious appetiser or their Saba Shioyaki for a taste of grilled perfection. Ah, aren't you glad you were born?

Lawry’s The Prime Rib
Housed in the regal Mandarin Gallery, Lawry's Prime Rib prides itself on their Signature USDA Prime Rib of Beef that is aged up to 21 days for the ultimate flavour and texture. But, there's more to be proud of - this place sure knows how to conduct a birthday bash. On diners' birthdays, a couple will get to enjoy 50% off their second main while group diners will receive 50% off the third course. Not only that, a complimentary dessert awaits, from Traditional Tiramisu to Lawry's Mudpie.

Synonymous with its signature Sticky Bones, Morganfield's prides itself in its tender prime pork ribs coated in a mouthwatering tangy BBQ sauce. Don't say we didn't warn you, but you won't be able to stop at just one plate. Well, thanks to their smashing birthday promotion, you won't have to. If you spend at least $400 in a single receipt on your birthday, you'll be given their Birthday Ribs Pass which will entitle you to one free half slab of sticky bones every month for a year! What more could you ask for?

d’Good Cafe
Housed in a cosy nook within Holland Village, d'Good Cafe will warm your heart with their hearty tasty grub and solid brews. But, on your birthday, they're out to freeze your brain with their monstrous 3-litre Jumpo Frappe that comes for free with any order of their Large Frappe.

Nihon Mura Express
Sushi fanatics, we've got amazing news. Nihon Mura Express has prepared the perfect birthday indulgence for you - $1 for every plate. Insane, right? But, every word is true. You'd better make space on your table for the streams of sushi and sides coming your way. Do note that the number of plates redeemable is based on your age count, so don't feel too bad about growing older.

Swensen’s
If you didn't eat ice cream at Swensen's, did you really dine at Swensen's? Coming as no surprise, this casual dining restaurant has its roots as an ice cream parlour, which explains the irresistible decadence of their ice cream creations. Well, on your birthday, you'll be indulging in one of them for free! Their complimentary Firehouse treat entails scoops of chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ice cream adorned with cherries, fudge and crunchy peanuts. It's an absolute dream.
