Recenzii
--Dale Degroff, author of T"he Craft of the Cocktail "
"Death & Co changed the way we drink in America. This elegant, intelligent book--with drink recipes from the 'Dirty Dozen' of top bartender/mixologists working in America today (all Death & Co veterans), plus sound, concise advice on every aspect of drink making--will make sure that nobody could possibly forget that."
--David Wondrich, author of I"mbibe!" and "Punch "
"Death & Co has become an integral part of New York's cocktail culture, and will remain a part of it for years to come. David and Alex have influenced the way people drink in New York City (and around the world), and I'm constantly inspired whenever I step into their bar. They craft each drink just as I would approach a dish, piecing together the ingredients, testing it tirelessly, striving for perfection, and also trying to connect each recipe to a story. There is a real art, a real passion behind everything they do, and this book will act as a
timeless reference for anyone interested in cocktails."
--Daniel Humm, chef/co-owner of Eleven Madison Park and Co-Author of "I Love New York "
"A fascinating, in-depth look at one of the best bars out there--brimming with
the same attitude and resolve that made Death & Co a true winner in the field. This book is a one-stop shop for anyone interested in cocktails and the bars that serve them, and it's a brilliant read, to boot."
--Gaz Regan, author of "the Joy of Mixology"
"With "Death & Co," David, Nick, and Alex have created an instant classic for craft cocktail enthusiasts and professionals alike. I've found this book to be essential in my home."
--April Bloomfield, chef/owner of The Spotted Pig
