Going Om

Little India & Kampong Glam


Right on Haji Lane, Going Om is a raffish, free-spirited cafe with nightly live music. It's an atmospheric spot, with candlelit tables, smooth acoustic sets (mostly well-executed covers) and no shortage of carefree punters dancing in the laneway. The boho spirit extends to the beverage list, which includes 'chakra' drinks of seven colours (one for each chakra, dude).
