Farrer Park

681 Race Course Road, #01-305, Singapore.

Two childhood friends. One very spicy idea.

Fuego Mesa means fire table, and the table is the whole point.

Andre and Gerald first met in primary school, then became family years later when Andre married Gerald’s cousin. Andre had spent years behind the wok at a hawker fried Hokkien prawn noodle business; Gerald was juggling university with work as a financial adviser. After a birthday meal at a Mexican restaurant, Andre saw how easily that food pulled everyone around one table, and called Gerald with the idea.

They opened in July 2025 beneath an HDB block on Race Course Road, designing the room themselves: marigold walls, sombrero lampshades, mosaic tiles, murals and a wall of vinyl records. Fifty seats, close together, on purpose.

  1. 01Corn tortilla

    Coloured by a mix of blue and purple corn, the wrapper everything else sits in.

  2. 02Purple cabbage

    Shredded raw underneath, for crunch and a clean, sharp edge.

  3. 03Dory fillet

    A fillet nearly the length of a hand, flaky and juicy through the middle.

  4. 04Beer batter

    Fried to a shatteringly crisp shell around the fish.

  5. 05Mango salsa

    The tang that holds the whole taco together.

  6. 06Chipotle mayonnaise

    Smoky, and the last thing to go on before it reaches you.

  1. 00:00

    Close-up of a beer-battered fish taco broken open to show the flaky white fish inside the crisp batter

    Batter hits the oil

    The dory fillet goes in whole, and comes out with a shell you can hear.

  2. 00:14

    Five cheese-crisped birria beef tacos topped with pickled onions, with lime wedges and beef consommé

    Tortillas on the griddle

    Cheese goes down first so it crisps into a seal and keeps the birria juices in.

  3. 00:27

    A quesadilla striped with chipotle mayonnaise and topped with fresh pico de gallo on branded Fuego Mesa paper

    Salsa, crema, pickled onion

    Mango salsa, chipotle mayonnaise and pickled onion, in that order, at the pass.

  4. 00:38

    Fish tacos carried to the table on a wooden board, with blue corn chips, salsa verde and guacamole behind

    Out to the table

    Fifty seats, elbow to elbow, exactly as the two of them drew it.
