To show our love and appreciation in return, we created two specialty cocktails for tonight. We hope you enjoy them! 🥂

Is that a science experiment, or can I have a sip...?

Straight from the mastermind of our resident mixologist comes this new eye-catching cocktail: Jupiter In Ta**us.

This drinkable art piece blends gin with red wine to bring you a lesson in liquid density. Your only homework assignment is to observe the gradual fusion of these wonderous ingredients as you sip 🤓.

Shaw Muang brings you minced chicken inside a warm radish dumpling, and is topped with crispy garlic. Unless you decide it’s too beautiful to eat, you won’t regret the flavors it brings to your palette. Hmm, the arrangement itself is very reminiscent of a certain romantic holiday coming up... HINT HINT ;)
