The Curator

“Third-wave coffee by day and kick-ass cocktails by night is a winning combination,” reads The Curator’s citation in the list of Asia’s 50 Best Bars, where it sits at 37th place in the 2019 edition. The list goes on to praise the bartenders’ careful attention to and respect for the ingredients – though one may well argue that the bar’s cosy, minimalist interior and sparse seating, which guarantees privacy and quiet for the discerning drinker, are just as much of a draw. The menu is divided into classics and their personalised, modernised versions; the friendly bartenders can craft you a drink to suit your tastes and mood.
