Middle child syndrome is all over the internet, and who would’ve thought the day would come where this oft-overlooked bunch would have a place for themselves – one called Middle Child Wine Bar no less. The folks behind Moonstone Bar at Amoy Street are the masterminds behind this new concept along Middle Road and Bencoolen Street focusing on natural wines, ice cream, sandwiches, and music. Wines by the glass go at $10 and are on constant rotation, so expect to sip on anything from a crisp Batussa Blanc from Catalonia, to a full-bodied red from France with hints of pepper, blackberry and plum.
And if wine is not your thing, the bar also stocks a decent selection of craft beer. Caffeine lovers might be glad to know that cold brews by the popular Kurasu café are also served here. On the food front, folks are loving the Morticia ($13), a classic mortadella sandwich with pistachio cream and stracciatella, as well as the bar’s ice cream counter which sees nine interesting flavours including butter crumble and stracciatella hazelnut (from $5).
