Vaayu, the chill lounge

It’s been a stressful week. You need to unwind but you’re so tired of the incessant bass, loud conversations, and whimsical air-conditioning at the regular watering-holes.

Transport yourself to Vaayu, a magical new lounge where windswept skies and starry chandeliers await. Located atop the Eva Mall, the lower-level interiors are done up in rich caramel wood with a high ceiling. The small seating space is dominated by a large ornate mirror. The stairs lead to the open-air lounge, a glittering view of the city and crisp open skies.

Should the rain play spoilsport, you can enclose yourself in your very own gazebo and watch the rain while sipping on a cocktail. Or ask for a hookah and recline on their comfy couches like a sheikh. Order from their sumptuous starters: Our Trendy Taster loved the spicy chicken wings.

Vaayu offers uncluttered space to relax. And music low enough to encourage conversation and peppy enough to invite you to shake a leg.

Perfect for those times when the disc just won’t do.
