I am a regular at East Village restaurants and bars and I am always amazed at what this neighborhood can offer. Although I go to places I know, sometimes I like to try new ones. Last week I tried Bistrouge for a few drinks and all I can say is : Oh my god. I have not tried new cocktails like these for such a long time. Sitting at the bar, while checking out their open kitchen, I started with Pernito which is a version of Mojito made with Pernod, an anise flavored liquor from France. It is very refreshing and tasty. Then I moved over to Pamama which has crushed fresh grapes mixed with Pama pomegranate liqueur and more.
Pros: Cocktails, design, open kitchen, service
