| Love @ 1st drink
My hubby brought me to Klee on my birthday and I just loved it!
The "no menu" concept means there will be an unique drink made specially just for you.
The drinks are made using fresh fruits (grapes, strawberry, kiwis) and top quality liquers.
It's definately a place worth going with some close friends/loved ones to chill and relax over drinks.
I know I am going back again :) |

| I am now a Martini Convert
I’d like to think that I’m quite an independent individual. I can shop, watch movie or eat alone, but I’d never step into club or enjoy a drink at a bar ALONE. Think it’s too much for a girl… But thanks to my friend whom I was supposed to catch up with at Klee turned up late, thanks to him, it made me realize that I could enjoy my drink and actually be at peace with myself.
To me, this says a lot about the place itself, from its location, ambience, service and finally the product, in my opinion, Klee is a winner. I totally loved the interior of Klee. It is tastefully raw, minimalist, with a classy undertone. Upon entering Klee, I was greeted by the very friendly bartenders aka mixologists and the soothing, soulful vocals of Michaela, I knew I was at “home”. There was a very unpretentious air about the place where you know that people who patronize Klee are there to enjoy great cocktails/martinis and the company of their friends/loved ones, and in my case, the wonderful art of mixology.
Being an avid fan of the show “Mixing with the Best” on Cable’s Travel and Living Network, I knew I was in for a treat. I definitely had to get the best seat in the house, which had a great view of the very experienced mixologists at work. Because the mixologists there are so experienced, there aren’t any menus! For my first drink, I told the very charming man-behind-the-counter (named AJ), to surprise me with something sweet and refreshing to start my evening. So he recommended the “Grape Martini”.
Ok I have to confess. Although I appreciate mixology as an art form, I’ve never been able to appreciate my martinis (I’m a wine fan). But at Klee, when you know the best peeps of the trade are doing your drinks, coupled with the fact that Klee only uses the freshest ingredients for your drink, you better sit up and appreciate your cocktail/martini, my friend!
The Grape Martini to me stood as a very elegant drink which is great order for us ladies – Pretty in pink, sweet, smooth and amazingly refreshing. Every sip was a ‘grapey’ sheer delight, light on the palate and yet depth all the same time.
What you might like to know (heard from a prominent individual from Klee) as well, Klee together with Eu Yan Sang, have recently launched a range of herbal-infused martini concoctions. I was so excited that I absolutely had to have it! So I had the Ginseng Berry Martini and the Bird’s Nest Martini. Speaking of alcohol that’s actually good for you! *hic*
Ginseng Berry Martini
I didn’t like the initial ginseng smell of it, because I’ve never been a ginseng fan. But when I took a sip of this beautiful sexy dark pink liquid, it totally blew my mind! It’s smooth, sweet refreshing and light. But what I really loved about this drink was the fact that they added soda water at the end. This simple touch just brought the sensory appreciation of this martini to the next level!
Bird’s Nest Martini
One word – Mysterious! Beneath that light-yellow colored liquid, there’s just something about this drink that baffled me. It had such an interesting taste that I can’t quite describe. All I knew was that it was just SO GOOD! I know it has some ginger, chrysanthemum and some other stuff.
Had such a great time at Klee that I actually didn’t want to leave. But I also know that there was only so much that my liver and mental state could take for one evening. One thing for sure is that I’ll be back for more, and yes to try more of the herby concoctions!
Tip:
- Please make reservations before going to ensure a seat inside. |

I think a lot of people are unanimous on this one. Klee is a breath of fresh air in the crowded Singapore drinks space. Its off beat location, fabulous interior, superb original drinks, and sitting only policy will keep this place packed (seated that is) for a while to come.
Klee makes drinks with love and passion. Probably the only place I know of in Singapore which falls into this category. They use really fresh fruits and blend them with top of the line alcohols. So you won't see Smirnofs for Vodkas, but rather belvedere.
Service is chic and efficient. Staff obviuously love working there. And being set in Wessex Estate keeps you away from a lot of tourists so thats a positive as well! |

| Please make reservations!
otherwise, you'll end up pissed off that you can't get a seat. It's not that Klee is standing room only. It’s the very fact that the management prides itself on not being over crowded that seating space in Klee is limited, very limited. So if you're planning to come here, please please make a reservation or you could be turned away - just like me a couple days back.
The place is always full house, even today a Thursday weeknight. We were lucky though. After waiting a couple minutes, the couple that made a reservation were a no-show and the two of us managed to get a seat by the bar. ONLY choose the bar. It's cool and is the heart of Klee.
Get served by some of the most lao jiao bar tenders - or at least they look like that to me. These guys look contented, like they have nothing to prove. I guess that it helps that you don't have barely legal patrons screaming their order at you asking you for trays of Sex On The Beach. There is a quiet confidence about these guys in what they do. And the proof is in the drinks.
Expect to spend about $40 here for at least 2 drinks. I had a pineapple and grape martini. The Pineapple and grapes were first mashed and then flambéed! Wow, that is a first for me. It’s quite an original tasting with the caramelized pineapple interacting (in a good way) interestingly with the tartness of the grapes. Not for everyone I think but I liked it very much. I also had a mango martini. Again interesting, not really what you would find at other bars. Be open and let the bar tender surprise you. I've been happy with their choices so far.
Definitely will be back again and today's already my 3rd trip (1 failed attempt due to not making a reservation) in 2 weeks... |

| Did someone say Booze?
Ahem... 1st i must say great place, beautiful and simple with a touch of class. Love the way the owners line up a selection of chairs for you to choose from. And i like the baby grand, it adds a touch of elegance to the total ambience.
I had a pretty rough day, so wanted something refreshing and nothing sweet. I ended up with a Mojito. Was a little disappointed at 1st cos i was expecting something less ordinally. But i guess i can live with a safe choice. But other than my little grumble, the mojito is yummy and a true thirst quencher. Good job there My Bartender D.
My gf had a grapefruit-tini for starter cos she wanted something fruitty and not too sweet. Phew I feel so lucky i didnt say that, cos the white solution in the v-shape glass packs a punch.
A little visit to the common restroom, (ya you guys will tink im weird for mentioning the toilet) but think you should check out the loo here, i like the little hanging chair (if thats what you call it) and the cute doors of the cubicles.
After draining my mojito, i wanted something with Parfait Amour (cos tis difficult to find this liquer nowadays). D use it to make a cocktail call Grape-tini. It comes with Gin, Freshly Crush Grape Juice and Parfait Amour. Excellent stuff here, it brings out the liquer but conceals some of the sweetness. I will definitly go beck for a second one.
My gf had a campatini, it comes in tumbler a tropical colours green, orange then a dash of pinkish red. Refreshing and nice drink. I kinda like it.
Final touches:
Klee is not all drinks and alcohol, they do light snacks as well, we had the bbq stingray fin, its pretty good with all the drinks. To sum up go there for drink yourself, cos drinking is believing. |
