The Wise King is an independent venture set up by industry veterans Joe Villanueva (currently the senior manager for bar and concepts at Shangri-La Hotel) and Sandeep Kumar (a two-time Bacardi Grand Prix National Champion). Here you can sip creative cocktails in the cosy lounge which include spirit-forward Negronis like the Mandarino Negroni ($128) made with local N.I.P gin with Mancino Vermouth, Mandarinetto Isolabella, and Rinomato Americano Bianco, or the claypot aged Olla De Barro Dos ($128) made with vermouth bianco, Rinomato Americano, brandy, and brined gherkin (dill pickles). Other refreshing serves include their signature Pickled Margarita ($118) and a Bloody Maria twist called Anger ($120), made with porcini mushroom-infused tequila, served in a red pepper rimmed glass.
