A personal blog detailing dining and eating experiences
Went to this place after a fine dinner for drinks in the Polanco area in Mexico City. Surprisingly the place surpassed expectations.
The music was mainly disco house, so lots of Purple Disco Machine. The waited sometimes strobed his flashlight when we a sick song came on. We also got sparklers from the waiter for free.
For drinks, mainly stuck to what I knew, which is Jameson highballs and Glenlivet on the rocks.
Will say the music sort of went downhill after 12:30am.
We went to this place for dinner after going to the Soumaya Mueseum in Polanco (Mexico City).
Like the rest do the area, it’s fairly up scale. Lots of high rise buildings and big naked companies.
This restaurant was located in a high end mall. Definitely the vibe was great.
For drinks, each whisky drink required that you order a double (so about 23 usd for two shots of Glenlevit). Deal was pretty sick.
For starters, they started us of (for free) with some nachos and dip (that seemed to have cheese and beans). For appetizers, we got the cauliflower, beef tacos, beef wrapped asparagus, quesadilla sampler and octopus. Would get the first three again.
For our main, shared the ribeye steak (medium rare) with mushrooms and spinach’s sides. Would get all but the mushrooms again.
For desert, we got a variety of cakes (not exactly sure which ones). Would get any cake there again.
We went here for drinks after working in the Apple New York Office at Penn station. It’s located in Korean Town at the top of a 14 story hotel. The hotel itself does look a bit newer and out of place than the rest of the area. However, getting into the elevator (which took 4 seconds per floor) and the rooftop itself, it didn’t feel as new.
I would say the drinks I had were given (the lychee martini was great and the glass of Glenlevit), however I would rather choose a bar that has a better skyline view and is higher (see below).
