COCKTAILS

Stirred, Shaken &
On the Rocks

Geoffrey Zakarian’s simple but influential philosophy on food has been applied to the cocktail program, designed by Mixologist Brian Van Flandern. By choosing the freshest ingredients, hand-selecting glassware and providing extensive training to the bar staff, each cocktail is both a beverage and an experience.
