There was a time when you and your woman thrived on smoke and loud music. When you partied from 7pm to 2am and still made it to your first morning classes. When good times were graded by the number of beers downed.
You still enjoy loud music and late nights. But, occasionally, you want conversation. Quiet. And Cognac. Well, i-Bar has grown up with you.
The seven-year-old lounge bar has reinvented itself from a dark den into a warm, luxe space done up in rose pink and deep red. With patchwork walls, glass screens and sofas, i-Bar now recalls Moulin Rouge, minus the stage. Couple that with in-house DJ Shan churning out the best in lounge music from Dusty Kid, Koljah and John Dahlback and you’re set for an evening of grown-up glam.
The fingerfood and the cocktails keep company. My Trendy pubbing friend loved the unique take on Singapore chilli crabs, served in miniature buns. And if gin’s your poison, the Wasp Sting comes highly recommended. Don’t miss the three warm chocolate shots with Cognac, Absolut Pepper and Cointreau.
Step in. Raise the bar.
i-Bar at The Park, 14/7, MG Road, Bangalore 1. Tel: 2559-4666. Cocktails start at Rs400, bar snacks at Rs 200.
