Prepare yourself for a month-long gustatory experience with limited-edition menus that will only be available at the newly minted Podium Social. The Podium and Tatler Dining present “The Taste Edit at Podium Social,” a unique and exclusive F&B experience that is made possible with the support of Martell Cognac.
This month-long campaign (October 1-October 31) spotlights five exceptional restaurants under one roof. Each of the five standout establishments has prepared specially curated menus, made just for this tasty project. And guess what? Every menu comes with two charming cocktails, all infused with the sultry magic of Martell VSOP, adding a touch of sophistication to every course.
Lazy Suzy will be opening at a later date.
