An ode to the Big Apple and the big-name personalities who inhabit it, <a href="https://www.hilton.com/en/hotels/sinodci-conrad-singapore-orchard/dining/manhattan/?DestinAsian" class="broken_link">Manhattan</a>, the black and gold jewel box off the soaring postmodern lobby at <a href="https://destinasian.com/singapore-hotels-conrad-singapore-orchard">Conrad Singapore Orchard</a> (formerly the Regent hotel), has been shaking up the local cocktail bar scene since 2014. Elegant service staff attired in all-black dresses welcome drinkers into a glamorous den of lacquered walls and leather chairs, where regulars order off-menu classics, or delight in spirits, bitters, and signature negronis aged in-house in more than 100 oak barrels. With 31 cocktails, the new <a href="https://www.sevenrooms.com/experiences/manhattan?DestinAsian">Seasons of Manhattan</a> menu invites guests to experience the changing seasons as New Yorkers do: a sensory journey that highlights seasonal differences in a country that has only one!
Start with a nod to spring break: <a href="https://conradsingaporeorchard.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/manhattan-digital-menu-2025-22052025-update.pdf?DestinAsian">Where the Boys Are</a> is a crimson concoction of tequila and mezcal, lifted by citrus, plum, and blackberry, a sophisticated celebration of beer pong. Taking the classic student game to another level, a sheet of dehydrated plum portrays the splash as a ‘ping pong ball’ melon sphere appears to land in the glass. For fans of local flavors, the <a href="https://conradsingaporeorchard.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/manhattan-digital-menu-2025-22052025-update.pdf?DestinAsian">Cha</a> in the Summer section of the menu is a grown-up take on bubble tea, with toasted soy milk, jasmine, kaoliang (a type of baijiu) and of course boba.
Whatever the occasion or inspiration, award-winning head bartender Zana Möhlmann and team are sure to create a libation to suit. —James Louie/Alison Marshall
