Follow them on Facebook to see their menu specials, and when they hold wine tasting events.
Caution! Drinking while listening to live bands may trigger one's inner desire to be on stage. Make sure you sound semi decent before taking the dive and acting upon a "hold my beer" type of situation. Results may include forever praise from your friends for your coolness, or....a drop in invites and Facebook friends. Cheers to the brave and creating legendary nights!

The "Rosemarry Fizz" an extremely fragrant and refreshing cocktail. I'm fond of using rosemary in my cooking, and even have a rosemary plant on my balcony. This cocktail was just too intriguing to pass up. Yes! It was delicious in an interesting herbal type of way.

| House Red |
Central Valley Chile 2013 Merlot: The red wine was a bit bland, and didn't have much of a back bone. The red was also served a bit too warm. I quite often hear people state, "red wine should be served at room temperature." but what exactly is room temperature? The average room temperature in a tropical climate such at Malaysia would be much too hot for wine.
Here is a chart that I put together to give you a better idea on serving temperatures for wine. These recommendations are not written in stone, but it is a useful guide to help get you familiar with wine serving temperatures and to make your drinking experience enjoyable.

Central Valley Chile 2010 Sauvignon Blanc: A one dimensional white driven by citrus aromas possessing a pistol packing high acidity. I preferred the house white over the house red.
