"Greenwich Village’s Austrian cafe Freud has reopened as Bar Freud, with chef-owner Eduard Frauneder tapping Austrian bartending brothers Albert and Jakob Trummer to develop a cocktail program “intended to reflect the unique experience of being in Sigmund Freud’s Therapy Room,” according to the menu. Albert Trummer previously ran pharmaceutical-themed bars and bar programs at Apothéke, Sanatorium, and Three Pillars. For Bar Freud, the Trummers have come up with cocktails like the “waiting room,” a tequila- or mezcal-based drink made with cherry tomatoes, bail, balsamic reduction, and habanero. “Foam,” “essence,” and “elixir” pop up all over the drink menu. There’s also a revamped food menu featuring mostly small plates and a few entrees like hanger steak, spatzle, and wiener schnitzel." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
