Chandu

Only a golden moon on a plain black door marks the location of this clandestine speakeasy. Chandu, which means ‘opium’ in Malay and ‘moon’ in Hindi, is well-hidden behind The Robertson House, but worth seeking out for its immersive ambience and signature cocktails. A standout: the Mata Hari, named after the infamous Dutch exotic dancer and courtesan, a seductive genever cocktail with passionfruit and pink peppercorn, sealed with a spicy kiss. Prefer a custom-made drink? Ask the bartender for market-to-glass cocktails tailored to your tastes with ingredients freshly sourced from the markets.
