Popular Cantonese tapas bar Sum Yi Tai has permanently shuttered operations at 25 Boon Tat Street. Previously spanning three storeys within a conservation shophouse that encompassed a ground floor bar, rooftop bar plus cocktail back room, it threw in the towel after six year years, citing rental pressures as a key consideration for doing so.
