F*nkytown turns three with Korean bar food and two guest bar shifts from across Asia. Banjoo Korean BBQ takes over the kitchen, led by Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef Injin Kim, while Jakarta’s Between The Sips and Changsha’s CMYK take turns behind the bar. The food puts Korean comfort dishes into drinking-friendly forms: tteok galbi smashed burger (B260) pairs a Korean-style beef patty with aged kimchi coleslaw, while samgyetang stuffed chicken wing (B180), inspired by ginseng chicken soup, comes with a ginseng soju shot. Ramyeon mac’n’cheese arancini (B340) gets a gochujang cream finish, and charcoal-grilled meats (from B490) come with home-made sauces and kimchi. Between The Sips takes the first shift, 6pm-9pm, pouring comfortably gum, a gin fizz with passion fruit and pistachio, and stuck on the puzzle, with cranberry-macerated cognac, vermouth and cacao nibs. From 9pm until late, CMYK serves four more cocktails, including wakey wakey, an espresso tonic-style mix of rum, Earl Grey and cascara, and special request, combining gin, peaty whisky, vetiver and Yunnan verjus. All eight guest cocktails cost B333 each, so there’s good reason to catch both shifts.
