Singapore, 6 August 2020 – Following 2019’s pop-up event series, “Nomadic Foragers,” the team from MO BAR is adapting to the new normal with a Nomadic Forager Virtual Bar Tour for 2020.
In each stop of the 2019 regional tour, the team had the opportunity to explore local markets and learn about indigenous fruits and spices in consideration for cocktails. Collaborating with a renowned cocktail bar in each city, MO BAR’s team created a signature menu – served for one night only at a special guest shift event. Reflecting on their adventures over the year, the team developed MO BAR’s Volume Two menu, which brings guests on a whimsical journey across Asia.
With travel temporarily on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic, MO BAR embarks on a virtual bar tour in partnership with top venues in Southeast Asia, including Vesper (Bangkok), Alice Cheongdam (Seoul), The Curator (Manila), ROOM by Le Kief (Taipei), Sidecar (New Delhi) and more.
Each participating bar will offer two signature cocktails from MO BAR’s Volume Two menu for a limited run, allowing their guests to sample MO BAR’s cocktails – no travel required. For a more in-depth exploration of the drinks, interested guests may opt into a live virtual session with MO BAR’s team via a QR code.
MO BAR will also host each of the participating venues for a virtual guest shift in Singapore, offering their signature cocktails for one week at the bar. Guests dreaming of their next holiday can indulge in unique cocktails from top venues around the region, all without leaving Singapore. The confirmed schedule for pop-ups at MO BAR is as follows:
6 to 12 August 2020: Vesper (Bangkok, Thailand)
13 to 19 August 2020: Bar Cham, Alice Cheongdam (Seoul, South Korea)
20 to 26 August 2020: Back Room, The Curator, Agimat, Spirits Library (Manila, Philippines)
27 August to 2 September 2020: Irusu Lounge (Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam), Galaxy Bar (Dubai, UAE)
3 to 9 September 2020: ROOM by Le Kief (Taipei, Taiwan), Sidecar (New Delhi, India)
Future stops on the tour will be added from September onwards, with details to be announced.

Jajan Indonesia adalah sajian terbaru dari FIT Gourmet yang membuat kreasi empat jenis jajanan favorit masyarakat Indonesia dalam sajian yang lebih sehat
Memasuki bulan Agustus, seluruh masyarakat Indonesia siap menyambut Hari Kemerdekaan. Sesuai tradisi, banyak cara yang dapat dilakukan seperti menghias sudut jalan dengan bendera merah putih, memasang bendera di tiap-tiap rumah, hingga menyulap lahan kosong menjadi tempat lomba khas 17-an. Tahun ini, mungkin perayaan itu akan terasa sedikit berbeda. Perlombaan yang melibatkan kerumunan warga, interaksi yang mengharuskan berada dalam jarak dekat akan menjadi hal-hal yang patut dipertimbangkan demi kepentingan bersama. Namun, hal itu tidak mengurangi semangat merayakan Hari Kemerdekaan karena akan selalu ada cara-cara kreatif untuk merayakannya. Seperti yang dilakukan oleh FIT Gourmet, sebuah layanan restoran dan katering makanan sehat di Jakarta yang meluncurkan program bertajuk “Jajan Indonesia”.
Melalui program ini, FIT Gourmet membuat kreasi empat jenis jajanan favorit Nusantara dalam sajian yang lebih sehat. Tersedia secara eksklusif sepanjang bulan Agustus untuk wilayah Jakarta dan sekitarnya, program ini diadakan untuk mengajak masyarakat mengenal sejarah Indonesia melalui sajian kuliner yang sehat dan lezat.
Berikut adalah keempat sajian jajanan khas Indonesia yang telah dikreasikan ulang oleh FIT Gourmet:
· Soto Mie Shirataki – makanan yang juga populer di Singapura dan Malaysia ini umumnya menggunakan bihun sebagai bahan dasar. Untuk sajian yang lebih sehat, FIT Gourmet menggantinya dengan shirataki yang telah dikenal akan kandungan kalori yang rendah dan serat yang tinggi. Sepiring porsi Soto Mie Shirataki ini hanya mengandung 192,0 kkal.
· Ketoprak Shirataki –shirataki yang mengandung 97% air dan 3% fiber glucomannan ini juga dapat diolah menjadi bahan dasar ketoprak. Ditambah dengan tauge dan tahu goreng, Ketoprak Shirataki ala FIT Gourmet dilengkapi dengan saus kacang yang dibuat dari kacang tanah dengan proses sangrai (teknik menggoreng tanpa minyak) untuk mengurangi kadar kolesterol. Disajikan lengkap dengan kerupuk yang terbuat dari rice paper roll, Ketoprak Shirataki mengandung total 611,9 kkal.
· Bakwan Bites – dikenal dengan nama yang berbeda-beda di tiap daerah, bakwan umumnya dikenal sebagai salah satu cemilan berbahan dasar tepung dengan berbagai isi dan varian. Berbeda dengan bakwan kebanyakan, Bakwan Bites dibuat dari butir jagung dan olahan sayur tanpa menggunakan gluten sama sekali. Satu porsi Bakwan Bites terdiri dari 10 potong bakwan dengan total 478,7 kkal.
· Kopi Cendol Lo-kal – Cendol yang pernah menduduki peringkat 45 dalam daftar minuman terenak di dunia ini merupakan salah satu minuman paling populer di Indonesia. Dapat ditemukan secara mudah di restoran hingga pedagang kaki lima, cendol dapat dibuat menjadi sajian lebih sehat dengan menggunakan gula jawa rendah kalori dari Tropicana Slim. Agar lebih nikmat, cendol ala FIT Gourmet dicampur dengan kopi yang menggunakan susu rendah lemak. Segar dan nikmat, Kopi Cendol Lo-kal hanya mengandung 200,1 kkal.
Seluruh menu yang tergabung dalam Jajan Indonesia dapat dibeli secara langsung di gerai FIT Gourmet ataupun melalui online delivery. FIT Gourmet berharap, hadirnya menu-menu ini dapat menambah keinginan masyarakat untuk mengenal budaya dan sejarah melalui kuliner Nusantara.
