Chapter 193: Manhattan

Inside the bar, ivory melodies still rotate soothingly.

The sound of glass clashing glasses and the sound of eight cheerful little cute voices gradually fell to the ground, and after celebrating the TTS award, Xiuying and Hyoyeon, who had come to our side, leaned back to the bar. In the current freehand atmosphere, a few of them drank Alexander in the cup and chatted happily.

The side of the long wrought-iron bar was almost completely filled. Kim Taeyeon, who is wearing a black crewneck knit, has changed back to her old appearance with a hint of alienation. She sat farther away from me and Kang Seok-joon, and except for the initial greetings, she kept chatting with Pani beside her.

Kang Seok-joon, who wanted to talk to Kim Tae-yeon, saw this, so he had to get up with a wine glass. He patted me on the shoulder, and then, with a sad expression, came out.

Looking at Kang Seok-joon, who was walking towards Kim Taeyeon, with some amusement, the corners of my mouth cracked directly. However, before my laughter can be heard, Sunny sitting next to me has already interrupted me with her explosive smile. [None] [false]

I shook the wine glass in my hand, glanced at a light-colored frayed sweatshirt, opened my mouth and laughed at Sunny, and said to her with a little curiosity: "Ah, why are you all so hilarious every day, are there so many funny things?" ”。

Amused by Yuna's funny story, Sunny squinted her smile and tilted her head to look at me. Then, she put on a sinister look and explained to me sternly, "Because the members of the room are not normal, so ......" Sunny pointed to Yuna on the side with a long end and smacking his eyes. "Especially this product, it's so funny, that's why I often laugh so happily."

Roll up the sleeves of your sweatshirt. Yun'er, who showed her white wrist, inexplicably lay down the gun. She hasn't reacted yet. Sitting in the high chair, he first showed a blank and innocent expression. After three seconds. After chewing on the meaning of Sunny's words, Yun'er reacted: Ah! It turned out that he was hacked by Shun Guioni just now......

The dazed expression quickly disappeared, and Lin Xiaolu officially entered, in a state of fried hair.

Leaning sideways, he picked up his wine glass, and the rusty nails seeped through his lips bit by bit. As I sipped, I watched with interest as the two men were in a state of struggle. It's more than twenty years old, but it's still the same as before. The state of the bomber is undoubtedly revealed. However, they are actually a little different from before, because they ............ One is missing.

――――――――――――――

Sunny and Yoona are messing around here, and Kang Seok-joon over there is leaning around Kim Tae-yeon with a dead face. It's a pity that Pani and Yu-il, who are beside Taeyeon, don't sell his face at all, and they don't have the slightest intention of getting up and giving up their seats. He was standing beside Taeyeon with a wine glass in his hand, a little embarrassed.

Fortunately. The rescuers soon appeared. Today's new major character is on the stage - Toby, the famous bartender in New York? Chekini.

Toby, a famous bartender in New York? Chekini, an internationally renowned bartender. Countless bars want him to be there, but alas, Toby has his own unique style. It is rare to stay in one wine glass for too long. He prefers to spend a clean afternoon in his coffee house instead of bartending in a dimly lit bar all day long. Research a new wine pairing scheme, or yes. Write a book.

Toby's arrival drew cheers from many people present. He walked over to the bar. just said hello to the people lightly, and then lowered his head and prepared intently.

The cheers in the bar died down after a while, and most of the guests were personable, at least on the surface. Take the arrival of Girls' Generation as an example, from the time they entered the bar until now, only two younger-looking young people came up to say hello and politely asked if they could take a group photo. Most people just look at this side twice.

Cool music, plus no one to disturb you. 36o degree surround view glass, a space theme that resists breathing. These various factors come together to make the young people at this time feel very happy.

Toby's arrival, means tonight's high? The tide is coming. First, the bartender with the Asian face just now has a fancy cocktail to warm up the atmosphere.

Sitting at the bar, we brought the bartender's dance into our pupils at the closest distance. The dazzling hand movements, the liquid constantly hitting the walls of the silver metal cup, we can even hear the sound of the impact. Trapped in a large mass of booze, the metal cup jumped around in the bartender's hand. From time to time, it flies high into the air and does a 72o degree Thomas maneuver. From time to time, he appeared behind the bartender and played hide and seek with the crowd present.

As the action of fancy bartending became more and more intense, the atmosphere of the scene became more and more enthusiastic. With DJ's music, when the song came to an abrupt end, the bartender stopped at the same time. The liquid that was still shaking inside the metal cup was poured out by the light, striking the mug, mixing with the lemon slices inside the cup to create another color.

The bartender who had mixed this glass of pink1ady and pink smiled indifferently, and then pushed the cup to Kim Taeyeon in front of him. Wearing a black and white shirt, he pulled his hand slightly and made a gesture of please.

Seeing that this beautiful glass of wine was pushed in front of him, Kim Taeyeon first nodded politely, then took the wine glass and took a sip gently. The pink liquid began to swim on Kim Taeyeon's lips for a while, and each pink foam was accurately spread on her taste buds. The aroma of wine filled all her senses in a flash.

Kang Seok-joon, who was standing on the side, looked at Kim Tae-yeon's expression that changed because of the taste of wine, and a smile erupted from the corner of his mouth.

Sitting on the other side, I had drunk all the rusty nails in the cup. I didn't look at the bartender when he was mixing a fancy drink, but looked at the bartender named Toby with interest. He looked quiet in front of him, smiling and sitting on one side until it was his turn to perform. With a messy head and a faint beard, it was difficult to put the aura of "famous New York bartender" on his head for a while.

In fact, in addition to being a bartender, Toby is a coffee house owner, writer and spirits consultant, writes columns in "Good Men" (Gent1EmensQuarter1Y), the New York Times ("Theneyorktime"), and published his first book, "A Bartenders1ife" in 2oo3. Now, his second book for The New York Times Lifestyle Travel Magazine is forthcoming.

The fancy cocktail ends with a glass of Pink Lady. The Asian-faced bartender consciously stepped away, and Toby, who had been waiting on the side, straightened his collar and walked to the main seat of the bartender.

Seeing this, Kang Seok-joon, who was cheekily squeezed between Kim Taeyeon and Hwang Pani, put his arm on the bar counter, and raised his wine glass with his other hand and raised it to Tobi. β€œhey,brother。 Want a glass of Manhattan tonight? ”。 blurted out American English, with a little set of almost quaint greetings, Kang Seok-jun, who tilted his head, said to Toby, the bartender.

Toby, who was picking up the metal cup and preparing to mix drinks, listened to Jiang Xijun's completely American tone, and nodded with a smile. "ofcour color!" Toby, who readily agreed, didn't start bartending immediately, he first looked at the eight bangzi present, and then raised his chin at Jiang Xijun. "Are these eight ladies going for a Manhattan too? It's in a New York bar, but it's a drink that only men drink. ”

The bartender who thought about the eight reminded him, but unfortunately the eight bangzi didn't appreciate it at all, and he waved his little hand on behalf of Shun Gyu again. β€œourtoo!” She didn't speak English very well, and she didn't care if there was a grammatical error in her sentence, so she said directly to Toby in a very high mood.

As soon as Sunny's voice fell to the bar, Toby, who knew about it, was already moving. His hands fluttered, and several empty metal cups flew from under the bar onto the table. The raw bottle swirled in Toby's palm, and the first to pour into the glass was a 37-milliliter bourbon. Master hands hold the bottle and pour the amount of bourbon into the empty glass, about plus or minus one to two milliliters.

Immediately afterward, the second one wandered in the air for a while, and the liquid that fell into the cup was Sweet Sweets. 22 ml of sweet Mesil, the measurement is still terrifyingly accurate.

Finally, three drops of vermouth, mixed into a glass with light. I saw Toby flick one hand quickly, and in an afterimage, the cup of the metal cup was covered. At the same time, the tightly sealed cup began to dance in the shape of a tango in his hands.

After a passionate shake, the liquid that had ended his journey in space returned to the cup, and the experienced Toby began to unleash his secret weapon, lemon peel. When the rust-colored "Manhattan" was slowly poured into the triangular glass, everyone thought that this cocktail, which was considered the exclusive drink of "New York men", was finished. But then, Toby picked up another slice of pre-cut lemon zest, gently circled it along the rim of the glass, and then twisted the lemon zest on the top of the glass with his fingers, and the dripping juice slowly spread on the surface of the wine.

After making the last move, Toby smiled and spread his palms at Kang Seok-jun. "That's perfect!"

After gently serving the Manhattan in front of us, Toby began to make the second cup of zuΓ² non-stop. After all, there are eight of them waiting to be drunk, and their eyes are wide open, looking forward to it. (To be continued......)
