Poleng Lounge

Fodor's Review:

At once a restaurant, nightclub, and tearoom, this captivating space hosts a young, eclectic crowd that is happy to graze on Poleng's two dozen modern pan-Asian small plates. The food delivers a satisfying mix that keeps you ordering more: panfried vegetable-filled dumplings dusted with green tea powder, spicy-sweet adobo chicken wings, and crispy salt-and-pepper squid with green chili sauce. No one goes thirsty here, with dozens of cocktails, teas (including alcohol-infused teas), sakes, and wines to choose from. The dining space, with a communal table, batik accents, and water gently flowing down a limestone-tile wall, is comfortably separated from the nightclub, which doesn't tune up until 10.
