Cyclus – A Shuiwei Hidden Gem


Joe Macpherson   |   April 27, 2020

Cyclus is located in the popular urban village of Shuiwei, an area known for its F&B. The creative space of 1368 has narrow alleyways, filled with restaurants, bars and coffee shops, and Cyclus holds its own among them all.  In a tough area of high-quality restaurants, it can be difficult to know where to go for dinner. But Cyclus should be considered among any others.

Not the easiest place to find, these alleys are easy to get lost in, but when you find it, you will enjoy a great dining experience. It’s a smaller venue with limited seating inside, but with outdoor seating too this can sit 30 or so people.  With splashes or art and colour around you this is a cool place to sit, relax, and enjoy a good meal.

The menu is small but quite diverse with salads, pastas, seafood, ribs and other meat dishes and ever-changing daily specials.  High quality ingredients such as salmon and USA beef are used here in many of the dishes, giving it that touch of luxury. The prices here are fantastic due to the large portion size and even a salad can leave you full.

There are some more not so commonly found items on the menu here which can make your dining experience even more interesting.

However just because some of the dishes are not so common doesn’t make them ordinary, not at all.  Every dish is great in its own right, and there is truly something for everyone on this menu.  There are also daily specials on the ‘blackboard’ each day, so be sure to check or ask before ordering to see what’s available.
