Drinks, Rocks & Stars

Between 5-8pm, for every cocktail/ drinks you order, you get to order up to 6 oysters at $2 each! Some oysters are fleshy while some are thin. Nonetheless, a good deal!

Calbee Plus in Japan elevates potato chips by adding soft serve ice cream in a potato chip cone. Ben & Jerry's has the right hit of couch potato featuring crunchy potato chips in ice cream.

KPO Cafe Bar innovated the concept by introducing their rendition of Chips n' Cream comprising their signature Homemade Potato Chips, topped with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and drizzled with Salted Caramel Sauce. Have you tried them yet?

I like the way mixologist featuring this rice-based alcohol in my cocktail, sooooooo sippable and never failed to cheer me up after my long day!

Back at my favourite cocktail place and got this bespoke cocktail for national day. I told them I wanted a coconuty but light drink and this was what they created. A toasted coconut top meringue with red sugar crystal and a light fruity drink with hints of Cointreau. Yum

They make interesting and beautiful bespoke cocktails, have friendly service, but it's a bit on the pricey side

Everything here ties up with a cultural Chinese twist which I love, the food (they have Bak Kwa pancakes!), the bold drinks that work with cool Asian inspired flavours, and the decor (Chinese binded menus and Confucius playing in the bathroom). Friendly service and an interest to improve on and perfect what they offer. One of my faves along the ASH area 🌟

Drinks while waitin for the one... To arrive... Light taste of mango... After taste... The "sek sek" lime came in to finish...

The Secret Mermaid is kind of, well, secret. It's probably nowhere to be found when the sun's still up, as salad bar Shinkansen operates this spot in the day. This elusive tasting room serves some of the most bizarre spirits you've ever heard of. Anyone up for Bakon Vodka or Smoked Salmon Vodka? If not, they bring in several other American spirits that are completely new and unique to Singapore, such as Berkshire Mountain’s Greylock Gin, which is rated the #1 gin by the New York Times.
