61 Monarchy, Damansara Uptown, Petaling Jaya

Lounge bar hopping is one of my focus at the moment and this bar is no longer a stranger to most of you. Speakeasy bar is one of the on-going trend now and 61 Monarchy is open by the very same people who opened Hyde 53M. 

It took us a while to look for it. There is no signboard at all other than the lot number. 

As we walked up the stairs, we were greeted by wooden panels that resemble a slide-in wardrobe. 

We were immediately greeted by a waitress when we slide the door opened. If you need to smoke, they have seats available, or you could step inside altogether and enjoy the nice, cool air-conditioned. 

Do not expect the place to be lit brightly as the bar's feel and mood is dark and lightly lit. Some might have trouble reading the menu in the dark that once a while, I see torchlight switch on from customer's phone, including myself when I have to order.

Their menu is pretty extensive, with wide range of whisky, wine, Japanese malt and artisanal cocktails. 

The Derby RM38

Smoked Cherry Sour RM45

Rosey Club RM40

Jaeger Bomb

After all the drinks, we were served complimentary tea and I find it refreshing.
