This Is One Rabbit Hole That’s A Pleasure To Get Lost Down

Rabbit Hole was founded by a young, local advertising executive who has turned his dream of owning an avant-garde cocktail bar into reality.

It’s classy and underground, well kind of, it’s at basement level under a ground floor Vietnamese restaurant just minutes on-foot from Reunification Palace.

Truth be told, it does feel a bit “warren-ish.”

Perfect for pre- or post-dinner drinks, Rabbit Hole serves up high-quality cocktails, some of the best in Saigon, in fact, with its signature cocktails curated to fit its Alice in Wonderland concept.

The floral Rabbit’s Gin Fizz — a twist on the famous Ramos Gin Fizz — is made using butterfly pea, chamomile-infused gin, lemon, lime, egg white and Lebanese orange blossom water.

Some of Rabbit Hole’s bartenders, including top dog Peter Nguyen, have worked in many of Asia’s and Europe’s best-known cocktail lounges, including Mr Fogg’s Residence in London.

Rabbit Hole does a great Sazerac, but try their Amaretto Sour, a cocktail made from Amaretto liqueur, simple syrup and lemon juice with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry — you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

This is the benchmark for where Saigon’s cocktail scene is at.

Good luck digging your way out of this hole.
