The entrance is a little cramped, covered in distracting credit card promotion signs during our visit, but past that, the atmosphere made it convincing to stay. White walls are tattooed with hand-painted murals of veggies and also accessorised with bronze-lettered statements. From high tables to plush blue sofas, the choices of seating are as bountiful as the eight month and accommodating enough for a bustling weekday's crowd.

That warm glow you feel upon stepping inside? It comes from two places: the radiant bar and the exceptional hospitality of the staff. You can still feel the aura from the private upper floors, used exclusively for dining. The low-key outdoor area on the third floor would make an ideal spot to enjoy cold beer on tap, once the rainy season passes.
