The Smoking Panda, CBD
The Smoking Panda at Hotel Coronation is a new player on the block offering a unique blend of suburban American Chinese as well as Western food and drinks. The small bar is conveniently located right in the middle of the CBD in Town Hall and is a relatively small venue with classy oriental inspired interiors. I have to note that they have a small tank of VERY rare jellyfish that are quite mesmerising to watch (ahem Miss K).

Since the bar has a good focus on cocktails, the drinks menu has pages upon pages of different drinks on offer ranging from the classics to The Smoking Panda house specials. Drinks were flowing throughout the night so it was a little bit difficult to keep track but they were all really good, asking the bartender for a ‘surprise’ drink resulted in a great bourbon on the rocks which was very smooth.
Some of the other drinks we went through were the fruity Georgia Peach and Coconut Lychee Cooler, both were really good and also very fruity starters for the night. The strawberry ‘milkshake’ was a really refreshing special concoction made by one of the bartenders from a base of milk, crushed ice, strawberries and a few other mystery ingredients, it was non alcoholic for those wondering 🙂
Although we never got a chance to try it this is the famous ‘smoked cocktail’ that is literally smoked!
Our favourite two dishes for the night were easily the san choy bau and fried prawn toast. The san choy bau is braised shortrib rather than duck which I think is actually a better variation. The prawn toast was one of the best I’ve had ever with a really delicious prawn batter and crispy bread to go with it.
Miss K and the others noted that the soft shell crab sliders were really nice, especially with the steamed buns. I don’t really like soft shelled crab so I can’t comment here but the majority of the table enjoyed it.
Tasty fried goods are always good at a bar.. I would have to say that the onion rings are best followed by spring rolls and then the corn dogs. The onion rings were a special favourite and I cleared these up before the other two had even gotten close to being finished!
The har gow and dumplings were nice but as expected they were more of a bar snack to go with the drinks and didn’t exactly wow me, if you’re after good dumplings definitely head to a dedicated Chinese restaurant instead where you’ll have a better experience.
The green tea fried ice cream was really nice, the fried portion seems to be a batter mixed with shaved coconut which was perfect in combination with the delicious green tea ice cream inside.
As you can see above, the venue is classy yet cosy. There are a few small areas that can be reserved for groups which I think is great for small parties or get togethers. The food menu isn’t anything extremely special (aside from the prawn toast) but the winning aspects would be the drinks and venue itself.
Definitely check out The Smoking Panda if you’re looking for a nice night out!

Hello! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform
are you using for this site? I’m getting fed up of WordPress
because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform.
I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of
a good platform.
I have been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
