Poco Loco

Poco Loco.

A new addition to the city's culinary scene, Poco loco a chemistry based Spanish and Mexican tapas bar & cafe. This cosy cafe with smart and eye pleasing decor is warm and inviting. Their cuisine is inspired by Latin American flavours, is what you can expect here. Their in-house mad scientist Dr loco offers some molecular concoctions.

What caught my eye the moment I entered its chemistry classroom meets millennial cafe are the words written on the wall " According to chemistry, Alcohol Is a solution ". There is a wall mural showcasing Poco locos selection of molecular cocktails in the form of a periodic table which adds to it's quirkiness, the bay window space set with suede and velvet chairs were my favorite spot as it reminded me of my Euro trip days, the funky chandelier inspired by the structure of an organic compound is something that was a first for me, it was a perfect conversation starter for me and my friend as we could not stop looking around and falling in love with the place with every passing minute.

Poco loco is a place to surprise your taste buds, with experimental Spanish and Mexican influences. The ingredients used at Poco loco are made inhouse, be it their breads, spices or the bitters used in the bar.
