150 Bars You Need to Visit Before You Die
A world tour of great cocktail bars, with the recipes to pour at home.
150 Bars You Need to Visit Before You Die is sommelier and spirits expert Jurgen Lijcops's personal list of the bars worth crossing an ocean for. Lijcops has worked in acclaimed restaurants around the world and founded Bar Burbure in Antwerp, so he knows what separates a good drink from a memorable night. This updated edition from Lannoo adds 50 new bars to the original selection, each picked for its cocktails, its design, or its genuine sense of character.
The route runs from New Orleans, New York, Mexico City, and Havana to London, Paris, Rome, Tokyo, Singapore, and Sydney, taking in hidden speakeasies, grand hotel lounges, and forward-thinking cocktail rooms along the way. Recipes for classics like the Daiquiri, Gimlet, Mai Tai, and Moscow Mule are woven between the entries, so the book works as both a travel wish list and a bar cart companion. Part of the popular 150 series, it is a compact hardcover with a handsome cloth-look cover.
