With so many dining and nightlife concepts
appearing in the world's most prestigious cities, it can
be difficult separating the 'flash in the pans' from
the genuinely unique establishments that are here to
stay. Singapore's, The Clinic, makes its distinction in a
most stylized manner.
Spanning over 15,000 sq ft of space,
The Clinic resembles an organized maze with pill shaped rooms
interlocking into one another for easy access. The Clinic has two
floors. The first fulfills your entertainment requirements, with a
number of bars, a dance club, and merchandise store. The entire
floor is clinic inspired, that is to say 'hospital chic' adorned.
That's where artist Damien Hirst comes in. His pop art graces the
walls of The Clinic, whilst his vision goes even further. Syringes,
drips, pills and hospital whites are the order of the day in The
Clinics decor. This satirical look at medical chic is both
stunning and entertaining.
Upstairs, The
Clinic offers a dining experience like no other. Dine from kidney
shaped surgical pans, and drink through test tubes. The avant- guard
menu is second to none and oddly enough well suited to the surroundings.
The
Clinic is ER-CASE, that is a drop of E.R meets a touch of Paul Smith.
Think Damien Hirst on Prozac turned gourmet, and you get the idea..
From wheelchair dining, through to hospital drip beverages, The Clinic
is a must see and perhaps one of the most unique concepts we have
hunted in recent times. by Billy T
