Yet even more NYC restaurant/cocktail recommendations sought.

Glad you like the Raines Law Room Mike…it really is an awesome spot. Did you go to the one in the William Hotel or the one on 17th street?

The one on 17th. Loved the atmosphere. Wished I could have tried Dear Irving but we could not get a reservation and didn’t want to risk a wait.

The idea of pulling a string to get service is genius.

So many cocktail bars, so little time…

Mike, glad you had a great time. Cocktails in NYC are always amazing and we NYers are definitely spoiled (I think good cocktails at almost any upscale restaurant now).

Will have to try the venison next time I am at the Nomad.

I see you’re back now, but really surprised no one mentioned The Breslin for cocktails. Had one of the best drinks of my life there - Liquid Swords (yes, as in Wu Tang)
