Manhattan
Ranked No.21 on Asiaâs 50 Best Bars 2023 and No.63 on The Worldâs 50 Best Bars 2023, grand hotel bar Manhattan needs no introduction. Itâs well-known for its brand of old New York glamour, served through classic and forgotten concoctions from the 19th centuryâs Golden Age of cocktails, each one crafted from house-made ingredients from Manhattanâs in-hotel rickhouse. Now in its ninth year, Manhattanâs newest menu concept introduces a star-studded Broadway Spirited cocktail menu. It pays homage to New Yorkâs legendary Broadway musicals while celebrating the theatre of bartending. It also welcomes to the stage the barâs new head bartender Zana Möhlmann from Amsterdam, who was part of the opening team of Super Lyan, a Ryan Chetiyawardana bar â and most recently, the winner of the 2023 World Young Mixologist Award. In Broadway Spirited, the story of theatre unfolds over 34 drinks in five categories. Choose from The Play (10 cocktails with flamboyant presentations and layered nuances, $28 each); The Orchestra (four cocktails from visiting luminary guest bartenders from the Friends of Manhattan series, $30 each); The Backstage (seven cocktails paying homage to the hardworking rickhouse that âworksâ silently behind the scenes, $32 each); The Curtain Call (eight classic Manhattan cocktails, $28 each); and Off Broadway (featuring four, zero-proof creations, $20 each). In her debut act in Manhattan, 26-year-old Möhlmann shows the evolution of cocktails with the bittersweet Anagram ($2

MOGÄ
Mod Japanese cocktail bar MOGÄ (Japanese slang for âmodern girlsâ) is inspired by the Prohibition Era of the 1920s, home to craft cocktails with Japanese ingredients and complemented by contemporary bar bites. MOGÄ also features a curated selection of Japanese whiskies, spirits and sakes from well-known producers to small batch distilleries. Hidden behind an unassuming door at the new Pullman Singapore Hill Street, the speakeasyâs interiors sprawl over three lavish seating zones with lush mahogany leathers set against modern, dazzling LED graphics and larger-than-life artwork. The cocktails here make liberal use of Japanese ingredients â think shiso leaf, kinako, sesame, and even wasabi. For something classic, try the Geishaâs Garden ($24) that comes in a cute Japanese tea cup. The smooth tipple features familiar ingredients like Roku gin, jasmine tea, vanilla, citrus and matcha, making it ideal for a first drink. But if youâre feeling adventurous, go straight for the Wasabi Smash ($24) â itâs a punchier cocktail with stronger notes of Asian herbs, featuring gin with wasabi, green shiso, basil, lemongrass, and citrus. On the food side, sashimi and nigiri await, as do creations such as salmon belly tartare in spicy yuzu with truffle shimichi, caviar and puffed rice pops. Other popular favourites include a loaded spicy tuna roll with diced fatty tuna belly and crispy potato; chicken karaage with karashi mayo and spicy tonkatsu sauce; and the Moga Samurai Roll for prawn tempura
