Buzzy drink spot GG Tokyo (120 E. 28th St) at the Park South Hotel is making a splash with a new batch of cocktails from head bartender Sasa Radovanovic (Schilling NYC and Paul’s Casablanca). They include classics with a Japanese twist. Here are a few of them:
Mermaid with beet infused Ten to One rum, Laphroiag 10-year, sake, and yuzu
Tomadachi with Casamigos, ume plum liqueur, agave, butterfly pea flower, and furikake
Kamikaze with sen-cha infused Haku vodka, shies citrus syrup, lemon, and seltzer
The cocktail bar draws its inspiration from Tokyo’s vibrant Golden Gai district offering late-night bites like Tuna Tartare, a twist on the classic made with tuna in tonnato sauce with fried capers and garlic bread; Okonomi-yaki, a Japanese pancake made with ramen noodles, topped with mayo, apples, and bonito flakes; and Miso-maple Salmon, served with potato pancakes, lime yogurt, and ikura.
