The year was 2004. Throngs of sweaty bodies moved to the rapid beats of Timberland and Skrillex at Singapore’s hottest nightclub, Zouk. Today, the historic address is worlds apart from its rambunctious past with the arrival of Jiak Kim House, a modern Asian restaurant by The Brewerkz Group.
Past the doors of this 1920s conservation house lies a majestic vision. The edifice of the building is enhanced with a towering pediment, drawing the eye to its high ceiling. Rich terracotta hues warmly envelop the 120-seat restaurant, as ambient light fixtures and custom-made rattan furnishing work together to conjure a space that feels like someone’s home. It’s a transformation that would have you digging deeper in your memories to be able to reconcile as the old Velvet Underground.
