Best whiskey tasting experience you can get in South East Asia. We tried a flight of Japanese whiskies which were honestly fantastic. The owner was really engaged and friendly and spent quite a bit of time walking us through the different types of whiskies available and sharing experiences purchasing the various bottles he has at the distilleries. Really enjoyable afternoon though the only downside I would highlight is the price. But then again you get what you pay for and I certainly found it worthwhile.

Just stepped out of this amazing hidden whisky Bar, had superb experience sitting at the bar enjoying various whisky which you can’t find in regular places, handled with top notch service quality by the bartender with Mr. V sharing his extraordinary knowledge around whisky.. highly recommend and surely will come back!

If you're looking for a more exclusive and private feeling spot that doesn't sacrafice on knowledge or selection, this is it . Covering rare and unique whiskey with more focus on scotch but reasonable japense selection as well. Service and attention was awesome. Will be our go to spot for sure to get the variety fix without long waits. Thanks guys

Was introduced by a friend. They did not have a price list for their VAST collection of whiskys. VAST! You can head to the back of the bar. Pick up a bottle and see the prices on the bottle. If you can't make up you mind, you can always ask for recommendations based on your preference. Nice ambience to chill with friends or even read a book.

TWC is more than just a whiskey bar - it’s a full whiskey educational experience hosted by Soo San and his lovely wife. Hosted is the best way to describe it - from the moment we walked in, we felt like family. Every bottle - and there are so very many of them - has a story, and Soo San shared many. We enjoyed it so much that we went back the following night for a tasting event where, again, a most enjoyable educational experience was had. Highly recommended.

Stepping into The Writing Club felt like opening a Pandora’s box—an unforgettable introduction to the world of rare and remarkable whisky. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable, possibly the most well-versed whisky expert I’ve ever met. He knows every detail about the distilleries and made three spot-on recommendations, each one exceptional. We spent a solid two hours chatting with him. His passion for whisky is clear and contagious. His wife was also present—both clearly serious whisky lovers—and the bartender was friendly and welcoming. Prices are steep, with rare drams going for $100–$200 a glass, but for us, it was more than just drinks—it was an experience. We spent over $700 for two people and left feeling inspired, not just satisfied. Highly recommended for anyone curious about the deeper side of whisky.

A cool little slice of Singaporean cinematic history. Free entry, lots of history about the Cathay and the movie industry and the benefactors. Worth a quick stop if you’re in the area.

A small unstaffed museum about The Cathay Organization which for decades operated two film studios and a chain of movie theaters in Southeast Asia.Spend time watching the teasers for the Chinese and Malay language films made by the studios in the 1950s and 1960s. There's also a portion of a display case with souvenirs of the opening night of The Cathay Cinema on this site in October 1939 with a showing of "The Four Feathers."

Bringing you down memory lane of the Cathay family, history and the world of filmography.

I thought it was underwhelming. There were interesting memorabilia here and there and also biographies of important players though I wished there were more? And I don't want to sound too critical but I wished there were more histories from the Malay side? since there was a golden age of Malayan cinema
