When the hunger hits, go on a gastronomic adventure with Chef Patrick’s classic and innovative izakaya creations, crafted with over 25 years of experience. Driven by his love for Japanese cuisine, Chef Patrick entered the culinary arts fresh out of school and cut his teeth at Sushi Sagano even before serving his time in National Service. Upon completion of his duties, he began official training at Tatsuya at Crown Prince Hotel to learn the ins and outs of hospitality and restaurant management. In 2004, he opened his first restaurant Yoyogi Japanese Restaurant at Mohamed Sultan Road, followed by a robatayaki restaurant in 2006. Empowered by their successes, he branched out to sharpen his skills further with the opening of Tamashii in 2012 followed by Boruto Sake Bar in 2014.
Armed with all that he has learnt and perfected over the years, he brings those knowledge and skills to Shakō-Ba, presenting a menu featuring over 30 selections of bar bites, priced from only $8!
Make your way to Shakō-Ba by going up two flights of stairs where its hidden entrance awaits, pointed out by Easter Egg Darumas. Push through the doors and enter a world of neon fun where high chairs beckon at its bar and posters plaster the walls for a palpable reverberating energy of youth.
Fun games set the stage for easy ice-breaking between friends and strangers, including an unbeatable promotion where there are Buy-X-Get-X-Free Shots so long as you share at least one with the table next to you. Look out for other side quests you can complete to win drinks – ask if the chef is thirsty and buy him a drink, beat a friend at a game, get a new wingman by buying them a drink and more. When all else fails, challenge any member of the staff for a round of games and win free shots!
