MOGĀ you say?
Welcome to the latest gem in Singapore’s ever-evolving cocktail scene, tucked away in the Pullman Singapore Hill Street hotel. The name “MOGĀ” translates to “modern girls” in Japanese, but don’t worry – it’s not just for the ladies.
What’s the concept behind it?
Inspired by the 1920’s Prohibition Era, MOGĀ blends the mysterious allure of that period with the rich culinary traditions of Japan. This fusion results in a unique, almost theatrical dining experience. Classic cocktails meet Japanese ingredients and flavours to create something unexpected and unforgettable.
Tell us about the menu . . .
It feels like a love affair between traditional Japanese elements and modern flair. Spicy XL Clams kick things off with plump clams swimming in a rich, umami-packed broth made from saikyo miso and chilli bean paste, and coriander.
Craving something with bite? The Crispy Squid delivers. It’s perfectly tender inside, while the outside gives a satisfying crunch, thanks to the sansho fish sauce, kizami yuzu, and a hint of green chilli. Then there’s the Miso Eggplant. This dish is silky, charred perfection, drizzled with a sweet-savoury miso glaze that gives it a smoky richness.
What are we drinking?
For something bold and savoury, the Dirty Saketini might knock your socks off. Imagine a Martini, but with sake, shochu, and a house-made pickling brine – it’s like umami in a glass and unmissable.
If you’re after something indulgent yet refreshing, The Frozen Drink is your new best friend. This Japanese-inspired milkshake combines whisky, taro liqueur, matcha, and azuki beans. Surprisingly, it’s not too sweet, but it’s creamy, rich, and just the right kind of decadent.
For fizz fans, The Yuzu Negroni Fizz is a fresh, bubbly twist on the classic Negroni, with yuzu bringing a zingy, refreshing lift that’s balanced with the bitterness of the Mancino Rosso and Campari.
How are the vibes?
Laid-back yet elevated. This spot is excellent for an easygoing evening or catching up with friends. The open kitchen and bar create an interactive atmosphere, so you can watch the magic happen while enjoying your meal and drinks. It’s casual, but it definitely has that “wow” factor.
