The avant-garde cocktail annex to minibar, offering a theatrical and experimental drinking experience with molecular cocktail techniques and playful presentations. This is one of the most unique bar experiences in the city — drinks arrive as edible spheres, smokes, and unexpected textures. Reservations are essential and the price point is high. Not for everyone, but unforgettable for the right guest.
