Spirits in the City of Angels from SIME BOOKS - Andrea Richards guides us through the best cocktail lounges of her native LA.
Los Angeles Cocktails is more than a cocktail recipe book or a sneak peek behind the bar; it’s a photographic adventure, by Giovanni Simeone, that explores Los Angeles, to imbibe at the city’s best saloons, and taste, via cocktails, the city’s colorful history. This curated guide features LA’s most inspired watering holes, from old Hollywood landmarks such as the Musso & Frank Grill, where you’re guaranteed the perfect pour, to today’s incarnations of the classics like the Varnish, hidden away behind secret doors. From mid-century Tiki bars to simulated speakeasies, these spots offer well-made drinks in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether the joint has history or conjures its authenticity from scratch, Spirits in the City of Angels by Sime Books distils the essence of the city — be it bitter, sweet or sour. Cheers!
