Quaff invites you to DJ JNR’s monthly night at Mimolette, “DIAL DEEP”.  The resident DIAL DEEP Collective will be pumping house classics and deep disco vibes to get your feet on the dance floor.

To celebrate our new partnership with this monthly night, the first 100 individuals to RSVP the word “QUAFF” to trybe@mimolette.com.sg will be invited to a very exclusive free-flow which will kickstart your night.

This free-flow takes place from 9 pm till 11 pm and features our very own Quafftail, a cocktail designed using Russian Standard Imperia.

DJs: JNR, JB (Jean-Baptiste) and percussionist, Aidan Bamrah.

Russian Standard Imperia bottles will be on sale at $170++ with free flow standard mixers.  The Quafftail will also be available at 2 for $18++.

Trybe will take place as well, bringing you the best of classic tunes and brand-spanking-new urban flavours courtesy of DJ Paul Silver.

Remember to RSVP to trybe@mimolette.com.sg.

See you there!

Designed by the talented team at Hu2 Design in London, these vinyl wall stickers also double up as recipes for very good cocktails.

With Absolut’s support, Jonze’s latest masterpiece is entitled “I’m Here”, a 35-minute heartwarming film about a robot in a captivating world.

First up is Hairloom & Caramel, an adorable hair saloon (Hairloom) linked to an offbeat cafe.  With tasteful mismatched furniture, the cutest cupcakes plus hot tea and a retail corner that sells little knick-knacks, Hairloom & Caramel is the ideal lazy corner to spend a rainy day.

Next is House, popular for their innovative presentations of our favourite cocktails such as Long Island Iced Tea which comes in a Chinese teapot.  Of course the large outdoor deck and comfy couches, the raw minimalist interior with artistic touches  doesn’t exactly keep people away.

Do note that the promotions at House will start on 18 Jan 10.

But bzzzzzzz… rewind!  I’m in Singapore, hello??  What gazebo?  The average apartment space in Singapore is so darn small, there’s not much chance of a patio even.  So I’ll adapt. Instead of an outdoor bar, I’ll settle for a beautiful space-saving bar cart and a cushy armchair.

Though I must say, with these bar carts, it’s hardly settling.

Spotted on Design*Sponge, this quirky apple green bar cart is bound to brighten up your evening after an insipid day at work.  It can be bought here.

I spotted this sleek little baby on Oprah, and ouch, it’s so clean-cut it really hurts.  It’s by a brand called BoConcept (great name) and hey, they have outlets at Paragon and Devonshire!  Get one for your high-rise bachelor pad with balcony; it’ll fit right in.

Used airline trolleys!  For you creative types out there.  Available at bordbar.  The interior is fully customisable, and you can also choose to send in your own design for the trolley if you don’t fancy the available graphic designs.  Ships internationally.

Here are some things we hope for in 2010:

1. Charming bartenders!
Sure, not all bartenders will look like Tom Cruise (pre-Katie), but surely they can do better than the occasional nonchalant nod.  And then getting my cocktail wrong.

2. Innovative cocktails!
Enough with the cosmopolitans and fruity lychee martinis, give me more of that stuff Tippling Club rolls out.

3. Serve tap water!
Please, please, please don’t ask me if I want still or sparkling.  I’m not in Europe.  I know tap water is good to drink, and I want tap.

Hope you all had a great time ringing in the new year!
