Hi Chris, I rang Chalk and they told me they charge $30 corkage everyday. Maybe you better check with them. Happy New year. Hamish

Bring your own

Dining out is lovely. But over priced wine and corkage fees are not-so-lovely. So next time you are heading out, take your own bottle of plonk and you will then get to experience your favourite bottle with your favourite food. Here are our favourite BYO restaurants, where your food will match with your wine.
Sage The Restaurant
This is one of Singapore's hidden gems. With excellent modern-European food, friendly service and no corkage, we just keep coming back again and again. Bring a lovely big red to enjoy with their caramelized grain fed Black Angus beef cheek.
