Modern Society

More than a kitchen and bar, Modern Society strives to be a place for people to eat, drink and mingle. This new restaurant in DC Mall boasts two stunning stories (respectively named The Gallery and The Loft), a contemporary food menu and a delicious deal for ladies' night on Wednesdays! That's precisely when you should swing by with your girlfriends to indulge in RM2 cocktails between 5 to 10pm. The Modern Poison embodies the spirit of this place, pushing conventional boundaries with whiskey, lemon, rose syrup, Angostura bitters and egg white. Otherwise, order the Pimm's Reviver, a fresh, easy-to-drink concoction of Pimm's No.1, lemon sherbet and soda. The kitchen is famed for their Chicken Ramen Burger (RM26.90) — a grilled chicken patty with miso mayo, sandwiched between compressed noodles (no more soggy buns!). But the real hero for us is the snack plate of Chicken Floss French Fries (RM13.90). Deep-fried in duck fat and tossed in saltish chicken floss, these shoestring babies boast killer flavours. Avg price per person: RM40

#GirlPower Ladies Night with RM2 cocktails! This is one of the prettier bars to adorn DC Mall's shoplots so at 11pm on a weeknight, the second floor's filled. Upon recommendation, I ordered the Pimm's Reviver, which has liquor, lemon sherbet and soda. Not the kind of cocktail I usually go for but glad I took his advice. It's the tangy, sweet type that's not so strong I'd feel like I can't order another glass (because RM2) but still gives me enough of a hit with every sip.
