There are tons of live stations at this appropriately-named Feast, and we recommend you start with an order of sizzling skewers - a plate full of smoky, charred perfection. The lamb green curry is also a standout: it falls apart effortlessly and is completely divine!

You’ll find some nice surprises on the drinks menu, notably the sake lychee martini - a light, beautiful smelling and subtly sweet concoction that doesn’t leave you feeling like you’ve swallowed a sweet shop. If you’re feeling particularly celebratory? Upgrade to a champagne package with Moët - at 2FOR1, it’s a steal.
