Sunday Sundowner

Krish for quiet get-togethers
This chic, tucked-away nook is a beautifully restored, two-storey colonial-style bungalow with an alfresco bar area. You’ll feel like you’re at a friend’s gorgeous country villa with leather banquettes, marble-topped tables, French bistro chairs and chandeliers constructed out of old glass bottles. Outside are comfy couches, romantic garden swings and a stunning back-lit bar in an air-conditioned greenhouse. Buddha-Bar-style music adds to the mood and feel.

Drink list: Bourbon Smash ($16), where the natural sweetness of fresh strawberries muddled with basil takes the edge off the bourbon. Red Grass ($16) is definitely a lady’s drink with two shots of Absolut Raspberri, fresh raspberries and lemongrass. MS 75 ($16) – passion-fruit puree in sparkling wine – is also yummy.

Menu: European haute cuisine with an Indian twist. Spiced Carrot Ravioli ($12) is filled with a ginger butter emulsion and sprinkled with pomegranate seeds. Roasted Eggplant Samosa ($14) is flavoured with tomato, rocket and basil aioli. Pork Belly Tikka ($14) is complemented with tamarind.

Go: 6pm-1am. 9 Rochester Park, tel: 6779-4664, www.krish.com.sg.

THE PACIFIERS
Dry, itchy and sensitive skin is just like a spoilt child: It wants attention all the time. To calm it, skincare brands are tackling the problem in a few ways. Some use anti-irritants to lessen sensitivity and provide rapid relief. Others comfort and strengthen skin by keeping it well hydrated.
