For a heaping serving of Southern charm in Singapore, there's no place like The Beast off Arab Street. Featuring artisan Bourbon flights and stick-to-your-ribs soul food, it's sure to tame your beast of an appetite.

Wrapped around a corner of Jalan Klapa, The Beast is a pint-sized space with gallons of flavour. Kick-started by local entrepreneur Jamie Koh of The Chupitos Bar fame, the barn-like eatery is an ode to her college days in Atlanta, Georgia. And some fun times those must have been, judging by the heavy influence of Kentucky-sourced bourbon whisky, including their signature and self-explanatory Baconator shot. The narrow ground floor area is raw and rustic, save for a trendy marquee sign along the inner wall. You could also opt for a roomier dining area upstairs, or for an alfresco barrel-topped table along the walking path.

While it's a space built for fun times and honky-tonk, the food takes its tradition of Southern hospitality very seriously. You'd be hard-pressed to find such true-blue Southern specialties as fluffy buttermilk biscuits with sausage gravy and Cajun-spiced shrimp and grits anywhere else in the city, let alone such superb versions. Though the reputation for Southern fare starts with fried chicken and ends with extra butter (Paula Deen-style), The Beast features a complete array of the diverse flavours for which the region is so popular for. If you haven't tried these dishes before, consider this your warning that this stuff is habit-forming, and though not diet-friendly, definitely worth the splurge.

Go for their new brunch menu, when those fresh-from-the-oven biscuits are on display, stuffed with drool-worthy fillings like crispy battered chicken and slow cooked pulled pork. Also noteworthy are the classic Chicken & Waffles, the Mac & Cheese Burger and savoury Cornbread. Washed down with icy Sweet Tea, or all you can drink Mimosas at $30, that's some really good eatin' y'all! (Mar 2017)

"A taste of American south on our little red dot, this honky-tonk serves up specialty bourbons, southern comfort food, and a slew of American craft beers like deschutnes, stone magic hat and brewdog brewery - they had us at bourbons really." -Honeycombers

"Food-wise, expect Southern comfort fare such as shrimp and grits, chicken waffles and pecan pie, with flourishes such as a home-made bacon bourbon jam." -The Business Times
