House of Pocket is back with a brand-new spot, and this time, they\u2019re serving up Sri Lankan vibes with a side of cocktails. Welcome to Kasippu\u2014part curry house, part hidden bar, all about good food, great drinks, and even better times.<\/p>\n

A Wadiya-Style Feed & More<\/strong><\/p>\n

Right up front, you\u2019ve got the Wadiya, a Sri Lankan-style curry house dishing up the real deal, thanks to Head Chef Amila Hemchandra.
Inspired by a trip back home, Amila wanted to bring the flavours of Sri Lanka straight to
Sydney, from high-end eats to village-style comfort food. And yep, that includes a
late-night Pepper Beef Curry Kebab and even a free Hydralyte slushie to keep the night
going.<\/p>\n

Cocktails with a Lankan Twist<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wander through the curry house, and you\u2019ll stumble upon a semi-hidden cocktail bar\u2014a laid-back spot where Sri Lankan flavours meet top-notch mixology. The bar takes inspiration from kasippu (Sri Lanka\u2019s famous homemade liquor), which means almost everything\u2014syrups, cordials, tinctures\u2014is made in-house.
Expect signature drinks that shake things up, like the Falooda Milk Punch (coconut rum,
strawberry shrub, rose syrup, coconut milk, strawberry jelly) or the South-East Side
(turmeric-infused gin, lime, pandan, mint). With 16 signature cocktails, 37 classics, and a bar crew that knows their stuff, you\u2019re in for a proper session.<\/p>\n

More Than Just a Bar<\/strong>
Kasippu isn\u2019t just about food and booze\u2014it\u2019s also got live entertainment, curated by Vyva Entertainment. Think live music, stand-up comedy, and even karaoke (because nothing says \u201cgood night out\u201d like belting out a tune after a spicy feed). Sitting in the YCK Laneways precinct, Kasippu joins one of Sydney\u2019s top late-night destinations. Good eats, solid drinks, and a buzzing atmosphere\u2014what more do you need?<\/p>\n

House of Pocket: A Sydney <\/strong>Small Bar OG<\/strong>
If you know Sydney\u2019s small bar scene, you\u2019ve probably heard of House of Pocket.
They kicked things off back in 2009 with Pocket Bar in Darlinghurst and have been
shaping the city\u2019s drinking scene ever since, with spots like Stitch Bar, Button Bar, and
Crooked Tailor. Now, after four years, they\u2019re back with Kasippu\u2014bringing the best of Sri
Lankan hospitality to the heart of Sydney.<\/p>\n
