Throw One Back

Chef extraordinaire Michael Schwartz is inspired by the diverse sights, aromas and flavors of destinations across the world.

And a recent trip to Singapore was no exception: He returned home with a new culinary concept.

Welcome to Sling Bar, Miami Beach’s newest hideaway. The Asian-inspired cocktail bar and night market – tucked inside Traymore by Michael Schwartz – serves up cocktails and snacks with Southeast Asian flavors.  

“Singapore is such a vibrant intersection of food cultures. I was able to experience its energy on a recent trip and was inspired by drinks, dishes and even new ingredients that have influenced the menu and cocktail recipes,” says Chef Schwartz in a press release. “We are excited to give guests an opportunity to taste something different, whether joining us for a quick bite and drink at happy hour or making a night of it to dine at the bar.”

Libations, dubbed “culinary cocktails,” include the SB Sling, infused with Bombay East Gin, Benedictine PF Orange Curaçao, pineapple, lime and cherry cordial, and the Curry Colada, with Havana Club Rum, Velvet Falernum, curry syrup, coconut creme, lime and passionfruit.

Bites include Chicken Satay with peanut sauce, Steamed Snapper Dumplings with garlic oil and coconut sauce, and Singapore Style Stone Crabs seasoned with parsley and green onions.

Welcome to Singapore, Miami Beach style.    

Sling Bar is located at COMO Metropolitan Miami Beach, 2445 Collins Ave. For more information, call 305-695-3555 or visit traymoremiamibeach.com.
