Top choice in Chinatown & the CBD


This hidden bar in hotspot-heavy Amoy St is the brainchild of bartender extraordinaire Vijay Mudaliar – formerly of Operation Dagger – and his concoctions have everyone talking. With spirits sourced from around the region – such as Thai rum and Sri Lankan arak – paired with locally foraged ingredients, expect the unexpected and be prepared to be wowed.

The Peranakan, a modern take on the Nonya dessert kueh salat made with jackfruit rum, laksa leaves, candlenut and pandan, is the draw card here; however, the sweet and spiced Pineapple Arrack follows closely behind.
