BOY'N'COW MEAT BOUTIQUE
Located right in the heart of Seminyak, at the end of Sunset Road, is the island's most famed steakhouse, Boy'N'Cow Meat Boutique. But if you look closely, this is unlike your ordinary upscale steakhouse, there is also a great cocktail lounge on the mezzanine floor where potent drinks will greet you.
While the restaurant downstairs offers an industrial vibe, the lounge upstairs is sleeker while still having an edgy atmosphere. The bar is lined with red leather barstools and curved banquettes that offer a view of the restaurant. Add in gloomy lighting and a skilled bar staff, and you have a place that draws serious drinkers, night owls, and people seeking a pre- or post-dinner drink.
The bar is managed by the young, aspiring bar manager, Cakra, who has won an array of mixologist competitions around the island. Inspired by the ruggedness of the prohibition era, Cakra has created a series of delicious signature cocktails for Boy'N'Cow.
The Rosella Margarita is a twist on the ever-popular Tommy's Margarita, made using hibiscus-infused tequila reposado. Meanwhile, the Coffee Cow takes its inspiration from an Old Fashioned, featuring homemade bitters and a single shot of espresso for a boost of caffeine.
Alongside the signatures on the menu are some in-house creations that are worth a try. The 20-day barrel-aged, super-smooth and rich Negroni comes in three different styles. In addition to the classic recipe is the Rossita, a mix of tequila, Aperol and sweet vermouth, while The Boulevardier is bourbon, Campari and sweet vermouth. Boy’N’Cow Meat Boutique
