Beer Basket Katong or Beer Basket SG
Beer Basket Katong was recommended by my BFF Lou Denman today and boy did she make a good choice because I love getting recommendations for food and restaurants. I think this used to be a KTV back in the day, right next door to my hairdresser & beard trimming joint, Tux, in Katong just up from Rabbit Carrot Gun. I had seen it during the week as well when I snuck there for a wee trim and it did look cool. So, Jude Jude had his trial for additional Chinese lessons today so we were in Katong anyway. Perfect timing to try this gaff out. And I have to say I am so glad we actually did. And therefore today we did visit a newbie on East Coast.
If you love craft beer Singapore, this is your destination.
Their strap-line is; ‘NO FLUFF, JUST CRAFT’.
Beer Basket Snapshots & Beer Basket Katong Review
I am liking the look of Beer Basket right from the get-go.
Minimalist and very funky decor.
Gets my vote!!!
And so does this. Holy moly. And I thought the variety at Colbar was vast. 4 drafts on too. But check out these beers, ales and ciders – they even had candy floss milkshake IPA, I kid you not!!! An insane choice of beers. We will be coming back here again and again that’s for certain.
Let's have a look at that food shall we?
1st up was some snacks – well you got to get some selection going right? Buttermilk Fried Chicken Bites – with a devilishly spicy sauce akin to a tartar sauce but punching above its weight on the chilli frontage. AKA Jalapeno Mayo ‘w’ Chives.
@ $12
These were cracking. The Portobello Mushroom Fritters with a simply delicious dipping sauce of Lemon & Garlic Aioli. Bloody brilliant these were. Super good.
@ $11
Here cometh Wifey’s order for lunch. How good does that look? Super-fresh, you can just tell. Grilled Shrimp Tacos. Salt & Pepper Shrimps ‘w’ Salad & a Kaffir Lime Mayo.
@ $13
I got stuck into this Moroccan Lamb Burger thing. What a cracker this was. Almost like a Lamb Kofta but in a toasted brioche bun with cheese and a stunner of a mayo.
@ $24
Jude Jude goes hard on the Classic Burger. Toasted Brioche, Lettuce, Tomato, Bacon, Cheese, BBQ Sauce… BOOM – winner. He ate every single morsel of this and believe me it was bloody huge. Good work Jude Jude.
@ $24
Strawberry Blonde decided to go for one of her favourites of Fish n Chips. I got Wifey to do her Filipina freshness test on the fish and she was VERY impressed with the freshness but also the fish itself because it had huge ice-white big flakes, so something like Cod. Strawberry Blonde said it was fantastic and again completely cleared every single scrap of food from her plate.
@ $22
