“For nearly 30 years, Hello Kitty has been inspiring the young and young at heart to express themselves through the ‘small gift, big smile’ philosophy,”

this bar is about 30-feet wide, 60-feet long with a remarkable 25-feet high ceiling in one of the most prestigious and convenient locations in New York City – the Grand Central Station.
Cognac and single-malt scotch are the drinks of choice here. Even in New York City, there are few places where patrons can order an 18-year-old Macallan single-malt Scotch or - better yet - a $175 glass of Remy Martin Louis XIII. However, the bar also offer “regular” drinks and beer.
Further, an impressive list of vintage cocktails and house specialties set the space apart.
The establishment is frequented by prosperous-looking Manhattanites who know how to have a fun and classy time.

In the basement of one of Manhattan’s most famous hotels lies this bar and lounge with eye-catching medley of models, celebrities and showbiz glitz.
The front re-vamped room with a circular bar is an intimate lounge. The middle and back rooms with grillwork, deep-pink pillows, patterned ceiling, mirrors and light pink walls present neo-Moroccan motif. The electro-led tunes and schizophrenic music mix needs to be replaced with tunes that sit well with the overall pleasant and surreal atmosphere of the bar.
Bar owner, Sam Shaeffer (Anna Wintor is his stepmother and Minni Driver a cousin) makes sure to prop up the bar with celebrities at all times.

Magu has detailed oriented design with columns built of interlocking rice bowls and sake pitchers, walls are covered with antique kimono fabric, and a bonsho (a giant temple bell) is suspended from the ceiling.
Megu’s Hon Maguro (blackfin tuna) is pole-and-line caught in Oma Bay, Japan and is air-shipped to Magu the day it is caught.
