Bold choices are the theme of the weekend as we reach the peak of an extremely rainy summer. Singaporean concept Sago House arrives at Dead Poets to sling classics, while farm-to-bar concept Glass Gardener runs it back with seasonal classic twists at Gishiki Lounge. Close off the weekend by celebrating two years of Crushed Wine Bar with small-batch wines and free-flow pasta.

Sago House x Dead Poets
What: Kick off your weekend at Dead Poets as the barber shop-slash-cocktail hotspot hosts the equally bold Sago House from Singapore. The latter is known for unconventional combinations and flavours in its signatures back home, such as the Just Right, which combines whisky, toasted oats, miso, Benedictine, lemon and cinnamon. Sago House will be slinging classics on the night, but expect a top-tier atmosphere for your night out.
Where: Dead Poets, 41-49 Aberdeen Street, Central
When: 8pm onwards
