"Among the newcomers, this W Prague bar led by barman Jan Šebek unites two distinct spaces under AvroKO’s design. Occulto pays homage to the building’s past as the Art Nouveau landmark Grand Hotel Europa—paneling and stained glass call to mind Alphonse Mucha’s fantastical universe—framing concoctions like the smoky mezcal-and-Scotch Serpent King bolstered with pineapple, miso, and honey, presented alongside questions posted by the bartender (“When is the last time you took a risk?”). A more upbeat atmosphere awaits in Poppy, with variations on classics, including a pecan-tinged Old Fashioned, enjoyed against a mélange of red, pink, blue, and gold." - Alia Akkam
