According to The ThirtySix Bar & Co's website, it is Asia's first and only (ex-Japan) cocktail bar serving the perfect Japanese highball The Mizuwari way paired with gourmet Izakaya inspired bites.
As well as that, everyone is probably here to see if they get a lucky glimpse of Daniel Wu who is either The Chief or The boss according to the photo on the website!
Anyway, no sighting of Daniel Wu that night but we had some fantastic food paired with drinks.

Started off with the 21st Century California and Seedlipper.
The 21st Century California was made with precision with steps that were followed strictly to ensure the perfect cocktail.
I must admit the 21st Century California was to my liking because it was SWEET concocted with Rinomato Bianco an aperitivo from Piedmont that uses aromatic ingredients including bergamot, rhubarb, vanilla and mandarin.
It also had Mezcal which is made from the agave plant.
Garnished on top was dark chocolate which enhanced the drink as it was like eating chocolate filled with alcohol.
Seedlipper was another good mocktail because it had my favourite basil syrup and most importantly Seedlipper Garden 108, a distilled non-alcoholic spirit from UK.
Moving on to the food, there was something for everyone.
Foie Gras & Oyster in Yakitori Sake Sauce:
This was a delicious pairing of oysters and foie gras on crispy seaweed and cress drizzled in sweet yakitori sauce.

Rice Crackers with Vegan Mocktail Mousseline:
I loved the layered mousseline dip which had avocado which was thick and creamy.

Abura-age tofu Yuzu or Xinjiang style:
If you order the abura-age tofu you get to choose yuzu or Xinjiang so I ordered both.
Xinjiang would definitely be my pick as I love those Xinjiang spices and cumin but yuzu was not bad either because it wasn't too sweet as anticipated.

Flambeed Tiger prawns wrapped in chicken skin:
Prawns are natrually yummy but with chicken skin that has been flambeed until its crispy makes them moreish!

Seasonal Fruits Platter :
This was unique and delicious, there was apricots, pineapples, figs and plums!
They were simply juicy and delicious without the sauce.
This is definitely the place to hangout.
