This September, Good Measure will be opening below Daddy Bao in Tooting, adding a new dimension to the Taiwanese restaurant experience. The hidden basement storeroom will be transformed into a stylish bar serving unique cocktails with a Taiwanese twist. Guests can expect to enjoy their drinks surrounded by stacks of steamer baskets, ferments, and spices, giving them a glimpse into the creative process behind the bar’s concoctions.
Taking inspiration from the vibrant cocktail scene in Taipei, Good Measure will offer a diverse range of drinks that showcase ingredients and flavours commonly found in Taiwanese cuisine. Picture an Old Fashioned with a peanut whiskey infusion, or a Bellini with hints of umami from miso – these are just a few examples of the exciting creations that will be featured on the menu.
Some highlights from the exclusive cocktail menu include the Cream of Matcha, Peanut Old Fashioned, Apricot Affair, Plum Green, and Taipei Sour. These inventive concoctions promise to tantalize the taste buds and offer a truly unique drinking experience. In addition to cocktails, the bar will also serve mocktails and Taiwanese bar snacks to complement the beverage selection.
Despite its unconventional location amidst restaurant storage shelves, Good Measure aims to provide an intimate and welcoming atmosphere for guests. With only 15 seats available, the bar offers a cosy setting perfect for enjoying a pre-dinner drink or a nightcap. The ambiance is further enhanced by the soulful sounds of old school hip hop and low fi beats, creating a laid-back vibe for patrons to unwind and relax.
Operating on Fridays and Saturdays from 6pm to 10.30pm, Good Measure caters to walk-in customers looking for a unique and memorable drinking experience. Whether you’re a local resident or just passing through the area, this hidden gem is sure to delight your senses and leave you craving more. So, if you’re in the mood for a heady cocktail adventure, be sure to check out Good Measure and discover the exciting flavours of Taiwan right here in Tooting. Cheers to new beginnings and unforgettable memories!
