Whether you’re slurping down a bowl of comforting fish soup from Mr Fish or you’ve endured the hour-long wait at the one-Michelin-starred Hong Kong Soya Sauce Chicken Rice (good on you!), reward yourself with a lovely, ice-cold pint from Smith Street Taps. The sister outlet of The Good Beer Company, this haven for craft beer lovers offers familiar names like Sapporo alongside lesser-known brews from all over the world at very affordable price tags ($10-$12 for a pint). Don't be shy to talk to owners Daniel and Meng Chao for recommendations — it'd be silly to miss out on a great food pairing, or a truly unique pour. If available, go for the German Weihenstephaner ($12), a wheat beer that Burpple Tastemaker Russell Leong describes as “refreshing and light with a whiff of wheat and a tease of fruitiness”.
Avg Price: $15 per person (drinks only)
