Never he started with names first when creating drinks. I once asked Giuseppe Gonzalez of Dutch Kills to create a drink based on a name: The Syndicate. The result was a complex sipper made with plenty of Cynar, Campari and other Eye-talian ingredients. A pretentious request with delicious results.

@EIT, my pleasure Dave. I believe that the strips of colored paper duplicate as well as augment the menu. I know for certain that item No. 28, pork chop with shrimp sauce, on the back of the takeout menu also appears on the wall. I didn't incl;ude it in this post, but it's some of the best fried pork I've ever had!

jussulent: adj., full of broth
