By The Sea Chef’s Special – Beef
Available throughout June
June at By The Sea celebrates beef the Japanese way, with beautifully crafted dishes to honour Japan’s delicious tradition of “Niku no Hi” or “Meat Day”.
“Niko no Hi” is an unofficial celebration observed on the 29th of each month – a wordplay of the number 2 (“ni”) and 9 (“ku”), which sounds like “niku”, the Japanese word for meat.
Cocktail of the Month – Mad Melon Potion
Available throughout June
A wonderland-inspired cocktail journey unfolds with Mad Melon Potion, an interactive creation where every sip reveals a new flavour.
Crafted with Gin, Midori (Melon Liqueur), Elderflower Cordial, Fresh Lemon Juice, Chilled Green Tea, and a Mixed-Berry Popsicle, the cocktail slowly transforms as the popsicle melts into the glass, weaving evolving layers of flavour, colour, and sweetness into each pour.
Ice Cream of the Month – Tiramisu
Available throughout June
June calls for a playful twist on a beloved dessert, Gili style. Rich Mascarpone, bold Espresso, and a delicate dusting of Cocoa come together in a silky tiramisu-inspired scoop. A cool, indulgent treat crafted to lift your spirit and sweeten sun-soaked days on our island shores.
Terms and conditions
Please contact your Mr./Ms. Friday for arrangement of this experience.
