You'll need to head down a side alley, up a fire escape and through an unmarked door to access this cocktail lounge, an intimate, grown-up affair complete with candlelit outdoor deck. There's no drinks list – just competent barkeeps who will gauge your flavour preferences and take it from there. Whatever the result, you can expect flawless, utterly drinkable revelation.
