24 Hours of Cocktails in Hong Kong
I have a 24-hour layover in one of the world's greatest cocktail cities, Hong Kong. My goal: go to as many of the best cocktail bars as I can before it's time to go.

    Great video! Yes bamboo bar is our no. 1 go to place in Bangkok, even we prefer to stay, at a hotel more to our taste, we always spent an evening here at the jazz bar. Its history includes a never ending long list of celebrities, even every time we go here, the lobby is full of guests in tuxedo and long evening dresses, attending events such as international political Galla, the bar is smart casual, with a mix of guest from Texan billionaires to local Thai elite. Be aware, it is not possible to book a table, not even if you actually stay, at the mandarin oriental hotel! We checked. Arrive minimum 30-45 min before the life music starts, as soon as the music starts, so does the line outside and it sure doesn’t look, as if standing in 30 degrees and high humidity, is anything anybody want to start off your evening. Best bar in Bangkok for sure! Oh and let yourself get BLOWN away, by the HUGE flower displays, in the hotel lobby.

    I can't emphasise my appreciation at this video, and the sheer amount of research/detail that went into this (that's at least 100+ drinks?) - a small but much appreciated feature is how you listed each cocktail description verbatim from the respective bars' menus - as someone who wrote some of the menus with their custom fonts, I loved you including the strength indicators from MO Bar and ATLAS' iconic sans-serif typeface. It was also really cool to see all our bars and very familiar faces from an 'outsider' perspective (you're trade, so not that much of an outsider, but you get my point). Among the bars, I worked on ANTI:DOTE's cure-all menu (the latest one you tried) for R&D, copy and themes over months, and I'm glad you were taken care of by Marlon when you were there! Would love to share some top new bars (opened in the past 12 months) that would interest you when you come back to SG: 1. White Shades - multi-storey bar with starkly different concepts on every level (ground-floor highballs, sultry cocktail bar on level 2, a draft cocktail spot on the roof), founded by the co-founder of Stay Gold (who was also EO SG's youngest-ever head bartender). It's genuinely just an enjoyable experience on every level, though you might have to limit yourself to one drink a floor or make multiple visits haha. 2. Mixology Salon - the Singapore outpost of the Tokyo-famous MS that you covered earlier this year! I've been to both, and the main difference is some of the cycled cocktails, though the mainstays like the Gyokuro Martini and Sencha G&T are all here. Like you said for EO, this IS Mixology Salon. 3. Tamba - the first West African restaurant in Singapore (and probably the region) with an absolutely killer drinks menu, backed by a bar of >60% African spirits. It's also got arguably the best interior design of any F&B establishment in the past year, but that's a whole other story. The GM is an award-winning bartender who heads the beverage programming, and was from 28 HKS and the Curator in Manila. Highlight drink would be one that used a very high ester Mhoba rum. 4. Cat Bite Club - the agave/rice bar in Singapore, for all cocktails soju, mezcal, tequila and shochu. The founders are also incredibly experienced; the former ATLAS head bartender who also led the cocktail program at Atomix NYC. 5. Jungle Ballroom - imagine the high-energy of EO, in a hip hotel like the Mondrian, with an overarching theme of Southeast Asian spirits. Cocktail bar that turns into a big party spot later at night, it's led by the bar manager who brought MO Bar onto the 50 Best list, followed by their huge climb to #8 the next year. Interesting drinks with some unique flavours owing to the region's offerings. Let me know when you're coming back - I could give you more info on any new bars then!

With refined Indian-flavoured cocktails, they've been around for a few years but just moved to sleek new digs right before BCB last year. Think they made their debut on Asia's 50 Best 2023 at the #60 spot.

    • @valianes
      @valianes Před měsícem

      Because prices aren't static, exchange rates are different every day. These videos are meant to be searchable for years to come. This video was posted almost 2 years ago, the prices and exchange rates are probably very different from when I filmed it. If I told you a price, it might be a lie and I'd rather not do that. Also, across the board cocktails are very similar priced so posting the same price over and over again feels pointless. And furthermore, I think prices are geared more for reviews and this isn't a review. It's a showcase of talent and to me, the price of a cocktail is irrelevant to the talent on showcase.
