There’s a new club in town. Rakes positions itself in the refurbished Chjimes alongside sister restaurant, Raven, to bring Singapore a touch of the exuberant Las Vegas. Proving that it is not just another face in the crowd of clubs, it has already hosted a huge party during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend to a packed house.
It is all about the experience over at Rakes. From the moment you enter, anticipation builds. The thumping bass aside, you are welcomed by whimsical theatricality of performers before coming face-to-face with the first ever Champagne Room in Singapore. Truly made of dreams, the room boasts a stunning list of premium picks – Dom Perignon, Ruinart Blanc de Blanc, Ruinart Rose, as well as, limited edition Veuve Clicquot Yellow Constellation Jeroboam. As long as you want it, it will make its way onto your table in seconds.
The rare 30-litre Armand de Brignac champange is also available. This beauty does not come easy (or cheap), so make sure your night isn’t wasted over a bad pour make a quick call to the club at least a day before!
Those who love their spirits and cocktails can head for the bars, serving anything from Belvedere Vodka, Hendrick’s Gin to Patron Platinum tequila.
Current resident DJ of international F1 circuit party brand Podium Lounge, Patrick Oliver (formerly of Pangaea) headlines the DJ line-up, promising a mix of the latest and greatest club music around the globe. Deep house, hip-hop or indie dance, you name it, they have got it.
Rakes is located at CHIJMES #B1-03-04, 30 Victoria Street, Singapore 187996. It opens on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Check out their website for more details.
