Timeout Magazine Bangalore did a Bangalore bartender faceoff for their cover story this month. They went around bars in town putting them up with each other on who makes a better concoction. Mostly classic cocktails. All the A list cocktail gardens of Bangalore were up in the race. So was Take 5 and yours truly as well.
For our part we were to show how to make a Manhattan and here it is with the classic recipe. And the bonus - we were declared winner!!!!
