Try Odem's New Exclusive Brunch Menu

Hwe-Dupbap (bSIDE)
Duck Guksu (bSIDE)

If you've done any sauntering around New Bahru since its inception, you might've noticed a clanedestine Korean restaurant tucked in the corner of the ground floor. Odem, Singapore’s first craft Makkoli bar and restaurant, has recently released a new lunch menu focused on hearty one-bowl meals—each paired with banchan (think house-made kimchi and marinated quail eggs), rice, and seaweed soup.

Before we get to the mains, do yourself the favour of ordering their Brioche, a ridiculously addictive bun glazed with sweet soy, served warm with a smear of gamtae butter. Yes, we're still raving about it.

Weekend brunch brings the Kalbi Sando—beef short rib, perilla pickles, and aged cheddar on milk bread—and the refreshing Duck Guksu, featuring BBQ duck on perfectly chewy buckwheat noodles with perilla seed sauce. Chef Yumi’s Abalone Boribap, a nostalgic nod to her childhood, is a must: tender abalone, pearl barley, and a silky makkoli-abalone jus. These dishes are exclusive only to the weekend, so you'll want to make your plans accordingly. And yes, their makkoli flights are there if you’re feeling bold at noon on a Saturday.

Sidenote: They also have a weekday lunch menu, which includes the Hwe-Dupbap, a Korean-style chirashi loaded with fresh seafood, spicy perilla, and cho-gochujang, or the Seoul-Style Beef Bulgogi, where tender grilled beef meets crunchy veggies and glass noodles.

When: The brunch menu will only be available on weekends, from 11:30am to 2:00pm
