Now this is thread that is right up my alley. Here's a few favs:
-
Ice Cold Gin Martini straight-up with a twist (Plymouth's or Boodle's please) @ the Vong Bar in HK (although not lately, it's tough to drink 'em through those SARS mask)
-
Gin and Tonic @ Harvey Nick's Fifth Floor in London (a bit tourista, but its a good place to start things off)
-
Mojito @ the Ghostbar in LV. Great atmosphere, excellent view - even when looking outside.
-
Manhattan (Makers Mark please) @ Whiskey Park, Monkey Bar, Bull & Bear, or any of a dozen other haunts in Midtown.
-
Ice Cold Old Style in a plastic cup @ Wrigley Field, Left Field Bleachers, Sunny day with the wind blowing out
-
Caipirinha's wheeled to you on a little trolley, accompanied by mountains of meat at Churrascaria Plataforma in NYC (49th btwn 8th and 9th)
-
Singapore Sling (before they started making them in oil tanker quanity and shot them out of a gun) accompanied by peanuts and satay @ The Long Bar in Singapore
-
Hurricanes in the courtyard @ Pat O'Brien's in New Orleans (tip: beware the Mint Juleps)
And last, but certainly not least:
- The fabulous Mai Tai, made fresh and served beach or poolside just about anywhere in Hawaii (although I have had a few bad experiences when I've been in "let's-find-the-cheapest-Mai-Tai!" adventures with buddies).
