From the creators of dynamic open-fire restaurant Revolver, comes Barood, a captivating Latin-Indian izakaya. This enigmatic bolthole is tucked away on the second floor of the same shophouse and is one of the hottest tables in town.
What's new at Barood
New this month: Next-level Tostadas, now topped with Negitoro, Morel Truffles, or Spiced Avocado. More vegetarian options abound, including pulled Jackfruit Pao with cashews, Cauliflower Skewers with chilli coriander and lime crema, and Spiced Paneer Tacos.
It Pays to Get an Early Start
The Early Tryst menu has been a hit, so Barood is keeping it going. Slink in between 5pm and 7pm, from Tuesday to Sunday, and enjoy five courses of exquisite tapas for $79++. Think of offerings like Smoked Lobster Yakitori, Butter Chicken Paratini, and Barood’s signature Goat Biryani Arancini. Wash them down with a cocktail or three and you’re off to a good night. Psst: Ask for the Dark Knight, a complex libation of rye whisky, vermouth, and mushroom bitters.
Meet Rodolfo
The GM and head mixologist Rodolfo Rodriguez is the key spice to Barood’s collection of signature cocktails. His experiences across the world, from his native Chile to some of the finest establishments in Singapore, yield uniquely inventive libations. To wit: Naked Flower, a twist on the pre-Prohibition classic Bijou cocktail. It’s a mix of Roku gin, Yellow Chartreuse, Cocchi Rosa and jasmine.
He also loves turning food into drinks, yielding delicious concoctions like Tropical Skin featuring a mix of Plantation Original Dark, Plantation 3 Stars, dry curacao, lime and Orgeat Halwa (a syrup made of halwa, or Indian carrot pudding, and roasted cashews).
Barood
To enter Barood is to step into a hedonistic oasis. Beyond its darkened hallway, sumptuous shades of plum and chocolate convey a captivating, unabashed allure as guests slink into plush seats and ponder a cocktail or three. A wonderland for the senses, Barood is the answer to every playful heart’s desire, be they a couple on a racy date or like-minded friends on a raucous night out.
