This is the place I take all my vegan and non-vegan friends and family when they visit the city. The tasting menu with wine pairing is an awesome price for the quality and thoughtfulness of everything Hawker offers, I’ve never had someone not say it was at least in the top 5 best meals they’d ever had! The cocktails are also wonderful across the board
