#CHILLWITHME : PS150 | CHINATOWN (KL)

Dark and Mysterious. 

A hidden bar housed in a pre-war shop which was once a brothel at the end of Petaling Street. PS150 is designed to bring you travel back in time to three distinct eras in the history of Indochina. Located under the popular coffee shop Merchant's Lane, PS150 which still maintain much of its pre-war building's character, snakes around a tiny stationery shop. 

Don't call it a speakeasy. PS150 is not a speakeasy bar. Behind the peeling brick walls, this bar offers a dramatic and atmospheric scene in the depths of the shop.

What makes PS150 different from the rest is its concept. This bar is divided into three different areas; the first area is an Opium-inspired den which accommodate 10 people at best, second is the courtyard that provide a more spacious open air concept for bigger group to chill in and lastly, the Main Bar. 

Behind this secret door is where all the action begins...

An adventurous tipple waits the bold at PS150. This is the place to transport you in time and space! The cocktails draws bold Southeast Asian flavors; with a cocktail list divided into five distinct eras in the history of this mixed beverage: Vintage (Pre-prohibition | 1850s - 1910s), Classic (1920s - 1930s), Tiki (1940s - 1960s), Disco (1970s - 2000s) and Contemporary (late 2000s - present).

Temptations included the cocktail from the Dark Ages, Lychee No.3 (RM 39) - a perfected version by Angel Ng (the chief bartender  of PS150) and Poisoned Princess (RM 150 / RM 300) - a cocktail good for 3 to 6 people that has Tequila, Mescal, Absinthe, Raspberry, Lime and Soda. 

Didn't know which to choose from the extensive lists, we gave a try on the Asamboi Margarita, Bee's Knees - PS150's Edition and Malaya 24.

Do expect full-house any day of the week. In fact, it isn't something strange here. If you are interested to check this place out, do make a reservation in advance to avoid disappointment. It may  take a little longer to get your drinks served; we know it's not an easy job for three individual to share the responsibility to serve a crazy crowd. 

I highly recommend this place for those who like a little dark and romantic action. If you have yet to visit this place, PS150 should be on your bucket lists. As for me, PS150 is definitely the bar that I will re-visit again.
