Origin Bar

Last but certainly not least of what we had from their small plates section:

𝐁𝐞𝐞𝐟 𝐇𝐚𝐬𝐡 ($16++)
🐄 Cabbage, Green Tomato, Mustard, Dill

The exterior batter provides a welcomed crunch, as you bite in to unveil a dense, meaty mini-patty. The slaw on top is necessary to cut through the heaviness of the meat.

𝐁𝐚𝐩 𝐗𝐚𝐨 𝐁𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬 ($12++)
🌽 Vietnamese Style Roasted Corn, Lager, Butter, Chilli

This is also part of the Small menu. It's practically a Mexican kueh pie tee - reminiscent of the buttery goodness of elotes at Cinco de Mayo parades. This fusion experiment works!

Also part of Origin Bar's "Bar Bites" menu (served from 5:30 - 11PM) are these 𝚂𝙼𝙰𝙻𝙻 plates. Great options if you're looking for bite-sized nibbles to share:

𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 & 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐧 ($12++)
🦐 Smoked Tiger Prawn, Paprika, Yuzu, Caviar, Coriander
An explosion of refreshing flavours in my mouth - smokey, umami, & zesty. I love the contrast of the crispy light cracker with the freshness of the prawn.

Their "Bar Bites" menu is served from 5:30 - 11PM, & here another good dish from the 𝙻𝙰𝚁𝙶𝙴 section:

𝐁𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐨𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐢𝐛𝐬 ($28++)
🐷 Pork Ribs, Homemade BBQ Sauce, Lime

Truth be told, I've never had a nibble at Origin Bar until this tasting 🤭 I had high expectations, because it's Shangri-La after all.. & I've also enjoyed the food at Origin Grill multiple times + have brought friends & family there to feast together.

From the Bar Bites menu, 𝙻𝙰𝚁𝙶𝙴 section:
𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐁𝐚𝐨 ($18++)
🐔 Panko Fried Chicken, Kimchi Mayo, Cabbage, Chives

The INFINITY cocktail menu is beautifully designed & a good read - admittedly, I didn't get to read through everything thoroughly that night. Will do so the next time I'm back 😉

𝐌𝐚 𝐓𝐨 𝐌𝐚 𝐓𝐨 ($26++)
🍅 Fords Gin Distilled Ketchup, Mezcal, Green Tomato
