You’re not just seeing things — our dear former floor manager Jovin has definitely returned!

Here are some fun facts to keep you in the loop about her:

She's a fan of heart-wrenching Chinese songs; her playlist is a soundtrack for rainy days.
If you hear her laughing out loud, watch out! You might end up in her playful slap zone.
Her taste buds are unique — chocolates are a no-go, but she’ll happily munch on a lemon or lime.
She’s a pro at her job, bringing passion, creativity, and organization to the next level.

Now that you know all that, don’t be a stranger; say hi when you see her!

Why choose one when you can have both? Enjoy half & half toppings on our signature naan pizzas. Choose from classic garlic, spiced chickpea, chicken masala, or mysore mutton! The choice is all yours.

Our liquified take on Spiced Crab Rasam not only brings its deep flavours but also carries over its immune-boosting properties. The cocktail adds our flower crab distillate, homemade rasam, a touch of tamarind, and a kaffir lime leaf — bottoms up!

Mmm…it smells like a platter of biryani making its way to you!

We love the quintessential Indian rice dish so much that we made it into a drink. Complete with a side of house-made achar and a piece of papadum, we reveal the layers of complexity that go into this flavour bomb.

We’ll take you to your 24/7 makan in one sip—embrace the spices, it’s our way to roll.

Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you the essence of the Malayalees in a dish—our Kerala Beef Roast.

Hailing from the Southwestern coast, the showstopper has to be the tender, slow-cooked chunks of beef that were roasted with the holy trinity of ginger, garlic, and spices.

Let the rich aroma of this dish fill the room with warmth, as you slurp down a fizzy, refreshing cocktail to balance it all out.

11/04/2024

The daily grind looks a little like this before our doors open every day. It’s the many rounds of experimentation that lead up to the rewarding moment when we’re ready to serve you.

Since day one, we’ve never stopped learning about the rich culinary history in our blood. The harmony of spices, freshness of produce, and our inventive spirit make our story one we live to tell.

We hope that in every drink, you’ll find something that resonates within.

Step aside Ramos, it’s time for Ramu to shine.

Our Ramu’s Fizz is not your average joe. We like our spices intense and bold, and that is a given here with the infusion of Indian ginger and toasted cumin seeds.

For the dreamiest finish, savour our homemade spice cream, with a meringue on top. If you have a separate stomach for dessert, this one’s all yours.

01/04/2024

Zero-waste, huge flavours. Zest, Seoul’s Best Bar and 5th in Asia, is back in town!

Be in the good company of bartenders Demie Kim and Mehdi Hong, who will be bring to the table a refined knowledge of sustainability. Working with local artisans to source only the cream of the crop, their process from crop to cup is a truly admirable one.

It’s always about the people. The people who come in and leave tipsy but happy.

“What’s nice at The Elephant Room?”

We think The Elephant Room is the place to be. There’s cocktails, delicious, heartwarming food, but most importantly, so much flavour.

Well, we hope to catch you around.

If you’re looking for something comforting to soothe your weekday worries, there’s the Mussel Crab Sothi. An underdog in the menu of heavy hitters to satisfy your appetite.

Sothi is a spiced coconut curry traditionally from the southern part of India and Sri Lanka. We added mussels and crab meat to liven up the dish and give it a touch of seafood umami. To balance the richness of the broth, sour green mangoes are tossed in, leaving you with succulent mussels and swimming in an addictive potion. A helping of flakey, buttery pratha is on the side to soak up the last bits at the bottom of the bowl.

It’s an honorary member of the clean bowl club. Try it to find out why.

You think you’ve had coffee, until you you’ve had Sinhala Coffee. Straight from Sri Lanka, which is commonly known for their vast collection of teas, this coffee is an absolute underdog.

We’ve taken its bold, chocolatey flavours and infused it with Arrack, making a coffee mead. Finally, finishing it off with kithul as a natural sweetener.

When it comes to your first sip, expect the unexpected - https://bit.ly/3GSq4pj

26/08/2022

This one’s a crowd favourite for a reason. Take succulent roast belly, Tandoori spices and you have a winner. Our Tandoori Pork Belly is the best a hog can be, after being treated with the traditional marinade of yogurt and spices.

As a new addition to the menu, we decided to try out a fattier cut of meat, marinated in the mouth watering spices, and stuck in a sous vide for 12hrs. What you end up with is a perfectly tender, just firm enough cut of pork that’s paired with a caramelised onion pineapple jam and pickles to cut through the rich flavours.

A humble cocktail that deserves a time in the spotlight. Farmer’s Joy is an homage to the Pongal Festival celebrated in the Tamil Nadu State. It’s a time to give thanks to the sun god and nature for aiding local farmers.

It starts with fermented rice wine, which represents the hardworking folk who toil the lands. Turmeric symbolises their courage and sacrifice, while camphor, commonly used in religious ceremonies during the festival, adds a piquant sourness to brighten the flavours.

A taste of the simpler times - https://bit.ly/3GSq4pj

A taste of home comes from ingredients treated with extra care. Fried bitter gourd is a nostalgic dish commonly found in Amma’s cookbook (check hers for yourself). Our Aloo & Bitter Gourd Fry is a balanced take on the bitter vegetable by adding perfectly roasted baby potatoes. The medley is tossed in a spicy masala blend to pull it together, while adding a touch of heat to the already hearty dish.

Add a fried egg on the top and call it a meal. Book a table to save yourself a seat - https://bit.ly/3GSq4pj

Asura, the ruler of the netherworld who fought for their reign of heaven. Stories of their clash with the Gods have been exchanged in every Indian home, and rightly finds its place as decorations to ward off evil.

We pay homage to the sacrifices with a rich, fearsome cocktail in an equally daunting ceramic. The cocktail itself, inspired by the Tamil Nadu, consists of two different leaves that form the distillate base, kaffir lime and curry. Roasted orgeat, made from cashews, almonds, green cardamom and rose water are added for a nutty, creamy texture. The finish is a torched curry meringue for an explosion of rich flavour in every sip.

A great person like a great cocktail must have strength and sophistication in perfect harmony. And no one embodies this balance more than our very own captain Mr Yugnes “Yugi” Susela.

Most know him as a consummate professional and the foremost proponent of Indian culture in the cocktail world, wowing his patrons with bold flavours and signature flair. But more than that, he is a fierce yet caring leader who pushes his crew and demands they respect themselves as he respects them. Thus his namesake “Cocktail Mahout”.

Join us in wishing the man, myth and legend Yugnes Susela a blessed birthday.

If you’ve ever wondered what a dessert curry would taste like, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve taken the rich, creamy mouthfeel of curry, along with its explosive flavours, and presented it in a way defies expectation.

Instead of thick, caramel-hued sauce, think of a light, airy meringue. And instead of coating it over a slow roasted cut, sip on it as a garnish of a cocktail.

Familiar, comforting flavours, in a totally different light. Trust us, you won’t just stop at one - link in bio.

27/03/2022

We’ve shared our special moments with you, it’s time for you to share yours. If you’re looking for a cosy spot that serves up delicious cocktails and grub for your next event, give us a call!
