At Evolution Lounge: Vodka martini, flipped, not stirred...

While walking on Second Avenue the other night, I saw that that the Evolution Lounge had (re)opened at Fourth Street...As you may know, we've been following the saga of this space through various incarnations/awnings...2x4, Ambiance, Evolution...




Our old friend Hunter-Gatherer was told by a construction worker last summer that Evolution would feature "flipping bottles, fire tricks…you know, bringing a Las Vegas style bar to New York."

Flipping bottles, eh?





Didn't see any fire tricks, though.

Previously.

  1. Man, I wish Lucy's would do more bottle-flipping and fire-eating.

  2. Ha! Yes! Perhaps we should get her a copy of "Cocktail" to start?

  4. When I go to a bar, I want my vodka served quickly. The faster the better. The bigger the shot the better. This circus act would just annoy the frig outta me, forcing me to leave. But not before grabbing the bottle in mid-air and helping myself to some directly from spout.

    Bars are for drinking. You want tricks, go to Ringling Bros.
