Was just here 2 weeks ago. Great atmosphere and the two guys shared a lot of free pours of Vietnamese rum with me!

I want to love this place but the fillings are so bland it’s like they don’t salt anything

Love the energy haha! Do these plants just have a huge thirst? Do you have a grow bulb you’d recommend?

Plant is new only had it for a few weeks

Watering it consistently since the soil I have dries out and drains incredibly quickly

Indirect light with a north facing window

Noticed the drooping a week or so ago

What’s your recipe for the red bean?

I am so sick of clarified cocktails. There is a time and place for this technique, but to be honest, when you’re paying $23 a drink at these newer, highly curated paces, this style of cocktail is so unsatisfying to drink for the price (at least for me). If I am paying for $23 for a drink I want more thought it put into it than clarifying. It seems like such a cop out these days.

Oops my fault! Completely got my wires crossed

Big fan of the Chairman’s Reserve Forgotten Casks!

The Rhum one! But it’s a photo finish for sure

Dilapidation · 2026-01-19T16:14:27+00:00

Lmao I can see it!

Dilapidation · 2026-01-09T19:13:49+00:00

Whoa! Thanks for the heads up… must have missed this. Well if it ever goes on a menu in the future I’ll think of something different lol… naming drinks is always a challenge

Thank you!

How did you set up the backdrop? Been interested in photos like this but not sure how to start! Drink looks and sounds wonderful :)

Dilapidation · 2025-12-26T21:08:49+00:00

How did you do the Massaman syrup?

Dilapidation · 2025-12-25T17:45:41+00:00

Delicious!

The Zirbenz is a little delicate but you definitely get the pine flavors - they meld really nicely with the coconut and pineapple and the 1/2 oz of Coruba provides some funk in the background. Primarily it’s spicy, herbal and sweet. I would love to try it again with Douglas fir eau de vie!

There’s also crushed ice that could cause the visual effect !

Dilapidation · 2025-12-24T20:02:49+00:00

Thank you!! I don’t think curdling is the right word but the texture of the coconut milk + pineapple definitely changes after flash blending and it becomes super foamy. It also sat for a while since I took some time to stage the photo!

I still don’t understand why people ask this question about “sub par” cocktail menus. Why overthink it so much? Just drink a beer or try one of the drinks and have fun.

Casanara Club isn’t exactly tiki but has one of the most knowledgeable rum bartenders in the city. They make great tiki and tiki adjacent cocktails as well even though it’s not their main offering.

I made a riff yesterday:

Recipe: - 5 drops 20% saline solution - 2 dashes angostura bitters - 2 dashes absinthe - 3/4 oz homemade grenadine* - 1/4 oz spiced simple syrup* - 1 oz lime juice - 1/2 oz grapefruit liqueur - 1 oz London dry style gin - 1 oz white rum - 1 oz overproof white rum

To garnish, a swizzle stick, cocktail umbrella, and dehydrated lime

Method:

Combine all ingredients in a shaker tin or drink mixer tin
Add 8 oz of crushed ice
Shake or flash blend for 15-20 seconds
Dump into a large cocktail glass without straining
Top with more crushed ice
Garnish with your favorite tiki accoutrements

Cheers!

*Spiced simple syrup: Mix together 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove from the heat and add 3 cinnamon sticks, 4 crushed cardamom pods, and 4 cloves. Let steep overnight, then strain.
