Buddha Bar

WHY GO

If you find yourself in the vicinity of Poblacion, pop into Buddha Bar for “modern day Pacific Rim” bites.

TATLER TIPS

The venue is a popular choice for events so reservations are recommended and table selection may be out of your hands.

• A mishmash of East Asian cuisines with a Western touch, the menu features everything from maki to tom yum goon. Every plate served, a visual feast.

• Start with the deep-fried dim sum in creamy crab chilli sauce and a twist of lemon. Portioned to share, the salmon bomb rolls and the teriyaki duck wraps are easy favourites.

• If you have a sweet tooth, Fire and Ice, their version of baked Alaska, is stuffed with ice cream and set aflame tableside.
