The Other Room
Tucked behind unmarked velvet curtains in the lobby of the Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel, The Other Room is a sophisticated speakeasy that redefines cocktail craftsmanship. Helmed by award-winning mixologist Dario Knox, the bar is renowned for its innovative approach to mixology, featuring over 300 in-house cask-finished spirits—a pioneering concept in Singapore. The ambiance exudes 1920s Prohibition-era charm, with dim lighting, plush seating, and a curated selection of vintage decor. The extensive "Timeline Menu" pays homage to classic cocktails, offering a journey through different eras with categories like Pre-Prohibition, Prohibition, and Post-Prohibition. Signature drinks include the "Reversed Gin & Tonic," a modern twist on the classic, and the "Peranakan Daiquiri," a clarified peanut butter rum cocktail served with chicken satay. The bar also offers a selection of tapas-style bites to complement the drinks. Recognized as one of Asia's 50 Best Bars, The Other Room provides an intimate setting with a capacity of around 30 seats, making reservations highly recommended.
