@haventichy4088

@@jplefaivre Portioned jungle juice that's creation was informed by years of his and his colleagues' experience and development. He also makes a point to mention that they only batch in ways that don't affect the quality of the cocktail (usually only batching spirits together or spirits and syrup for the Old Fashioned). Additionally, he's using nicer liquor than what was in any jungle juice I've ever had. For instance, that Old Fashioned he batched probably cost his bar roughly $500 just for the ingredients. That being said, the prices at this bar are marked up roughly 30-45% compared to industry standard around the country, but that's due to its location and notoriety. If you don't want to shell out for well-executed and innovative cocktail, you're more than welcome to stick to places that serve other fare or make one yourself, but don't act like this guy isn't making excellent cocktails because he pre-batched his liquor

@@jplefaivre So your opinion is invalid. If you don't understand why they have to batch in that kind of a bar, then maybe you should study a bit harder , because you're probably failing some of your simple courses as well. Woodford out of the bottle is not going to taste any different than a batched one. A cocktail dilluted with water and a cocktail dilluted with ice is the same exact thing when they're kept at keg-cold temperature. You stir an old fashioned, you don't add anything to it by shaking it, therefore there's no reason why you can't batch it like they do.

You watched him dump entire bottles of liquor into cambros and you call that perfectionism? Water and sugar were the only things that were actually measured at all in this video. I'm sure their cocktails are amazing, but you aren't paying for the cocktail at a place like this, you're paying for where you're drinking the cocktail.

And yet a lot of the time, it just isn't there. Its NYC, so everything is fast paced, yes, this bard is slower during every day except events, but best believe, many have complained about the service/attitude. Mainly because they go there once and take pictures, never to return. I'm a regular, they treat me good, a civilian isn't gonna get the same treatment.

I agree the one nitpicky thing I have is how little the head was on that beer. Might be because I started out in Germany 2cm of foam for Kölsch, Pils and most other lagers 4cm, IPA/APA/PA 3cm and the way he did it only for stouts, porters and bitters. Wheat beers unless a sour one would be 4cm. Only exception for the Pils was when we had Czech Pils and someone ordered Mlíko pour so almost all foam. If we had too much or too little head on the beer it would get sent back or we would get told to start over by the head bartender.

This is one of my favorite videos by Bon Appetit so far. Something you dont expect when you go to a bar for a drink, but for Tim, its another day at the Bar/Office.

11:27 Watching this man go through his R&D session was so cool. As a former bartender there was nothing more enjoyable then having the freedom to just play and come up with something different.

When I 1st started bartending at a big local banquet house, a lady asked me for a root beer float. I told her we didn't have ice cream. She chuckled and said no, it was a mixed drink, all booze. I had NO clue, couldn't find it in the bar book ( back before cells and google lol), so I got the 2 top waiters to come behind and help. Took us about 15-20 mins, but she got her drink 😆😆 wish I could remember how we made it but oh well, now they have root beer snachapps.

"If you pick up the same bottle twice in one round of cocktails, you failed." As a bartender, I could not agree more. Efficiency is key, and honestly I think it might be the most important aspect to what makes a good bartender.

great video. love the different perspective vs the other kitchen focused stories. Tim's got the personality of a seasoned bartender too; seems like sitting at his bar would be a pleasure.

This dude is awesome. The right amount of personality and was not afraid of being in front of the camera could watch a show with him being the host easily.

I could watch Tim just talk about ingredient choices/prep for hours. If he had a YT channel I'd be on top of every video.

Such a great bartender…the banter, efficiency, organized technique and personality!!! Bravo Tim 👏🏼 ❤

This bartender is probably what makes the Pebble Bar a super fun place to go.

I spent 3 years in my early 20`s bar tending full time in Manchester, UK, in the late 90`s...after 3 years I was exhausted and burned out...kudo`s to him for still being in that game at his age...

Seeing him put that effort into it and being precise with everything just so everyone can have their prefered drink fast just warms my heart. As for the pre making of cocktails and checking every keg I understand him all to well. In my college town in Belgium we used to host party’s with our fraternity for close to 8.000-10.000 people, not pre-making cocktails or preparing enough Beer ready for tap is a recipe for disaster.

Wow what a character. Rarely do I stay for the entire episode. He’s really entertaining to watch.

This is just music, all music, all around. So many references not just in the cocktail names, but also with how Mr. Sweeney talks. I would love to have a drink with him.

Simply for the fact that Johnny Carson had his studio on the floor where his namesake bar is that bar is FIRST on my list of places to visit next time I'm in NYC. There's no one like Johnny anymore.
