Get a taste for Singapore's nightlife with food, drinks and live music from some of its best exports.

Overview
There are a lot of reasons to get your passport out and make the short trip across the ocean to Singapore — Universal Studios, Gardens by the Bay and the cuisine (several of its hawker stalls are Michelin-recommended). But perhaps the most exciting is the nightlife. To give you a little taste of what's on offer, Singapore Tourism is taking over a Melbourne bar for two nights and transforming it into a hub of Singaporean after-dark culture with world-class cocktails, food and music.
The Albion Rooftop will play host to the Singapore Social for two blasts on Saturday, February 23 and Sunday, February 24. Stop by to sample some flavour-packed street food prepared by Masterchef 2018 winner Sashi Chelliah including chicken rendang, crispy skin pork and chilli crab sliders.
Alongside these tasty bites, you can sip cocktails from two of Singapore's (and the world's) best bars. Vijay Mudaliar, owner of Native (ranked 13th in the world), and Luke Whearty, founder of Operation Dagger (ranked 23rd), have been flown out specially for this pop-up and will be slinging inventive mixes for $16 each. Some of the top-notch drinks on offer include Native's Forager's Garden, with gin, blue pea flowers, pandan kombucha and ginger, and Operation Dagger's Pork Soda, with vodka, roast pork belly, apple and creamed soda.
Plus, don't think you'll be leaving without hearing some Singaporean bops, with two musicians providing the beats to accompany your eats — DJ KoFlow will perform at 9pm on Saturday and 3.30pm on Sunday, while singer Tabitha Nauser will perform at 9.30pm on Sunday only.
Singapore Social will be open from 12pm on Saturday, February 23 and Sunday, February 24. Food will be served until 9pm (or until sold out) and cocktails will be available until midnight. For more information, head this way.
