We tried The Whey Of Water and Voodoo Child – tequila-based cocktails and loved the Whey Of Water. Gin-cocktail Down & Dirty was really good. Coming to the new menu, Chilli Cheese Cigar became our absolute favourite. It was creamy, crispy and oh-so flavourful. Spicy Chicken & Celery Dimsums were perfect, just the way you’d expect them. We found Rosemary Chilli-Pickle Broccoli a bit too salty at first but when the chef suggested having it with the pita bread, it tasted good.
Another dish that intrigued us was Paddu with a twist. We wanted to discover the twist so ordered it. They were soft and puffy and made for a light and comforting dish. After all that indulgence, it was time for something light and healthy – and it was Barley and Pomegranate Salad. It’s not for every palate but if you want healthful goodness, it’s a good pick. The all-new Monkey Bar was really a delight to visit.
