Evening Bar, Smyth Hotel

smythOne of the coolest hotels downtown also serves the coolest drinks. With an emphasis on artisan distilleries, The Evening Bar at the Smyth Hotel uses organic fruit and vegetable extracts with a studied approach to classic recipes. Some call it a speakeasy bar, but it's actually Andrew Carmellini's baby with a mid-century California vibe. The legendary restaurateur opened the bar just last month; it's no secret the drink menu is worthy of a five star rating, with ingredients like Porcini vinegar, mushroom, egg, byrrh, walnut liqueur, and beet powder. Did you expect anything less from Carmellini? Smyth Hotel, 85 West Broadway [Photo via]
