The NYC Bar Legend With a Secret Martini Menu in His Head
"A Crown Heights bar whose planned opening was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic and which ultimately opened without the original bartender as owner; he later consulted on the cocktail menu, contributing drinks such as the Disco martini — ruby red from gin infused overnight with hibiscus, balanced with Cocchi Americano and finished with a discarded grapefruit twist — a drink that preserves martini tradition while treating an extra botanical as another facet of the spirit’s profile." - Robert Simonson
