Eurasian Community House

This is such a lovely venue in the Katong/​Joo Chiat area. It’s truly a community house, as everyone can walk in and eat at Quentin’s (a very solid Eurasian restaurant– deserves it’s own 5 star review!) or view the galleries dedicated to Eurasian history in Singapore.
Quentin’s encouraged us to visit the galleries as we wait for our food, so we took the opportunity to look around the House. The first floor gallery is Eurasian 101. To quote their website, «a Eurasian is someone who is neither Chinese, Malay or Indian» but rather, «an Asian with European ancestry and heritage» (most likely Portuguese, Dutch, or British.)
The upper galleries focus on Eurasians in Singapore during World War II. There’s a lot of information to process; I think it’s best to visit separately as you wouldn’t want your food at Quentin’s to get cold!
In addition to the galleries, they host a lot of community events at the House and support other events around Singapore. A very welcoming place; I recommend anyone to stop by if you’re in the area and looking to learn about a unique culture! However, do note that the galleries are closed on Mondays.
