Fresh Eats: New Restaurants To Check Out This Month (February 2021)

1. Beats Bites & Cocktails

Popping up on adventurous tipplers’ radar is a new drinking den on buzzy Bukit Pasoh Road, Beats Bites & Cocktails (BBC). The beverage menu at BBC showcases a modern take on spirit-forward classic cocktails, created in collaboration with Dee Atan who has an extensive bartending history in Singapore, most recently at IBHQ. They have put together an extensive spirits programme with offerings such as an ocean-fused whiskey aged in Japanese pine barrels to Caribbean Rum from Grenada finished in Portuguese Madeira casks and paired with over 120 types of bitters.

Housing a BERTHA charcoal and wood oven, the only one of its kind in Singapore, Chef Max uses Binchō-Tan Wood (備⾧炭) for high heat grilling, to impart amazing flavour to the dishes. Not to be missed are the Bertha Ash Biscuits, which are made in-house with leftover ash from the oven as a substitute for baking powder, lending it a slight bitterness that cuts through the unctuous flavour of the Longan Honey Miso Marinated Foie Gras that is served alongside.

Beats Bites & Cocktails is located at 8 Bukit Pasoh Rd, Singapore 089822.
