A true neighbourhood drinking hole, this no-frills restaurant-cum-microbrewery in the industrial part of Bukit Batok has quietly become one of our favourite places to enjoy a boozy weekend. Come with a group of serious pint pourers for the free flow Beer Buffet ($35) that gives you access to the craft beers for two hours. Of the eleven brews cranked out by On Tap Brewery available, the ones you must have are the award-winning Wheat Beer ($8, it won second place in the Asia Beer Medal Awards) and the crowd favourite alcoholic Root Beer ($11). Before the excessive chugging happens, be sure to get the devilishly spicy Molten Wings ($8 for three pieces) or the lip-smacking Deep Fried Pork Belly ($9) to line your tummy. A recipe handed down to the chef by his grandmother, the latter features juicy chunks of pork belly with a melt-in-your-mouth fatty layer.

What The Rawr Kitchen lacks in decor, it makes up for in generous table space and its excellent food. This no-frills restaurant-cum-microbrewery in an industrial part of Bukit Batok serves comforting pastas and award-winning beers by On Tap Brewery — perfect for a large group to enjoy a boozy weekend. The menu boasts simple and homely dishes at its best — unbelievably tasty Bolognese ($11) that features al dente linguine topped with beef that has been slow-cooked for four hours in a homemade tomato sauce. The brew list by On Tap Brewery is off the charts too — try the Wheat Beer ($8)(it won second place in the Asia Beer Medal Awards) and the crowd favourite alcoholic Root Beer ($11). If you intend to stay for long, go for the free flow Beer Buffet ($35) that gives you access to eleven beers for two hours. Complement your beers with the lip-smacking Deep Fried Pork Belly ($9), juicy chunks of pork belly with a melt-in-your-mouth fatty layer, a recipe handed down to the chef by his grandmother.

How delightful to find a craft beer watering hole with a weekend beer buffet for only $35/pax. Yet another place on my list where I aim to conquer the whole menu-- & I mean both the food & drink ones.
Tried their Wheat Beer & Brown Ale; both were smooth & enjoyable.
The root beer here (yes, root beer was a naughty alcoholic item before people sanitized it into a G-rated kiddy soft drink) will educate and pleasure your achingly-thirsty throat, whilst those out for a manlier time can go for their IPA. ⠀⠀

Hardcore degenerates will be happy to know they have a weekend liquid buffet - for $35 nett you can drink nonstop until you are more bloated than a 13-year-old Seoul Garden first-time attendee.
Apart from insanely spicy wings, The Rawr Kitchen prided themselves over house-brewed beers that had clinched them a silver award at Southeast Asia Beer Awards. Featured here are the various alcohol that they brew in house at the brewery within the establishment — not an avid beer drinker (lately I find myself enjoy white wine, Moscato, Champagne, Korean Rice Wine, Ciders and Sakes more) my choice was definitely the Root Beer (middle in photo). Don't be mistaken — the Root Beer is totally alcoholic though it tastes largely similar to the ones we are used to now (so you can come expecting to feed your cravings for A&W Root Beer), though it's been said that Root Beer was made alcoholic during its inception which is what inspired this version here. Definitely a recommendation to try the Root Beer for those who are intending to make a visit to The RawR Kitchen soon!
