Spoilers ahead, if you don’t wish to see any photos or details of the dining experience, skip this post!
If you are running out of date ideas, consider this interactive 5-course dining experience inspired by Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. First of all, I love how the entrance of the restaurant is quite hidden at the back alley (so mysterious). Once you’re inside, you will be ushered into 5 different rooms where you’ll get to interact with the host and enjoy a specially curated meal (You can also state your dietary restrictions during your booking and they will try their best to accommodate!)
I felt like I was watching a live theatrical performance the whole time. But it’s not just about that, because there were instances when you had to interact with the host or other diners. I have to say though… this experience is probably not for the introverts. I was tasked to read out an entire script out loud, and also dance at some parts… But that was only in 1 of the rooms. Other rooms were a lot more chill, and we even get to complete a mini DIY activity. Tbh, as a 60% extrovert and content creator, I actually volunteered to take up the role.
Other than that one particular room, the hosts were the ones entertaining us with a lot of hype most of the time, and therefore it would only be fun if you reciprocate the enthusiasm. Otherwise, you can just imagine the awkward silence after.
As for the food, there were surprise elements in most of the dishes. While they were prepared quite decently with sufficient portion to keep me full at the end of the meal, it’s definitely not the same standards in comparison with fine dining restaurants. After all, the price you are paying for is meant for the overall experience.
One exceptional meal that got me laughing was the ‘toothpaste and mouthwash’.
Was it worth it? I honestly think so! But that’s only if you truly enjoy such interactive dining experience. Personally, I found this concept really unique and unconventional.

Location is a mystery! (But don’t worry it’s not somewhere so ulu)
