The Bourgeois Pig
"Amorous winos we are. From Alsace to Provence, from the traditional to the innovative, we venerate the wines of France; so much so we couldn't help but introduce them to the New York cocktail world. Thus, for The Bourgeois Pig, we have created a bourgeois cocktail. An experimentation - neither blasphemous, nor bastardly - with the finest wines and beers. Enjoy a drink, with the Pig." The gilded mirrors and lush brocade, set off with smoky grey marble and plush antique armchairs, evoke the extravagance of the Baroque period. Channel Marie Antoinette and order yourself a champagne cocktail (choose from selections such as Fleur de Florence or Sir Isaac) from Death & Co. mixologist Philip Ward. On Saturdays and Sundays, get a half-price bottle of wine from 5pm-7pm.
