"The book Death in the Afternoon certainly has its fair share of dipsomaniacal characters as does Death in the Afternoon, the bar. The primary culprit in both is absinthe, the much-maligned spirit falsely accused of everything from hallucinations to murder. No, if there’s any slaying going on inside this moody Mills 50 booze den, it’s at the hands of owner-bartenders Arthur Boothe and Julian Burgos who kill it with their cocktail game, and chef Eric Norvelus who executes with aplomb." - Faiyaz Kara
