At Nemesis, Tanrantana is showcasing dishes like Tiger Prawn Lumpia, A lavish take on a Filipino classic with pork-stuffed tiger shrimp wrapped into a delicate spring roll; Sambal Skate marinated in Sambal sauce and garnished with crispy "fin-bones;" Wagyu Picahna, a 14-ounce American-bred "Washugyu" Wagyu steak in a robust black peppercorn sauce; and Khao Soi Gai inspired by Northern Thai cuisine with crispy chicken, fresh Thai herbs, in a house-made curry noodle soup.
Creative cocktails from Beverage Director Nick Hwang rely on house-made syrups, tinctures, and infusions reminiscent of the speakeasy era. They include BKTea BangKokTea, a whimsical take on a Long Island Iced Tea; Antidote made with Harridan Hand-crafted Vodka and Basil Oil; and Black Mirrora, a heady blend of Kavalan Whiskey and Mr. Black Coffee liqueur.
