Here's the view that you will get when you dine at Moonstone

Located on the 2nd level of The Jewel Box at Mt. Faber, this al fresco Japanese yakitori and bar offers you over a hundred “sake” or rice wines which come from prefectures in Niigita, Akita, Fukushima, and Tokyo. These are all worth a try for each sake brings its own unique taste for to cater to each and everyone’s preferences.

What sake wouldn't go well with these snacks!

For first timers, we recommend that you try their cold sake before you try the stronger ones. It may be too strong on first sip, but it gets smoother and better as you go along. By the time you realise it, you have already finished the whole bottle. Get to enjoy these drinks with friends at their al fresco bar furnished with a luxurious patio and wooden floorings, swaying palms, and a space of living flora and fauna. Make sure that you reserve the best seats so you drink in the view of the urban landscape, vast sea, and the moving cable cars.
