The seedy yet glamorous underbelly of the colonial era is revived at Chandu, a hidden speakeasy identified only by a nondescript door with a gold handle shaped like a moon.
A hidden bar where Dr Robertson hosts his inner circle. Expect bespoke mixology that weaves inspirations from an era bygone, with a market to table focus cocktail program. Be a part of it.
This new bar pays homage to the opium dens and clan associations of the era, and its drinks are similarly inspired by this history. The gin-forward drink “Chasing the Dragon”, for instance, is infused with a range of spices to reflect the lucrative spice trade in the colonial era, while the medicinal “Self-Help Drink” references how coolies unable to afford medicine would make their own herbal concoctions.
