The cocktail menu at the new Mistral Kitchen, in the able hands of
Andrew Bohrer (formerly of Chantanee), is quite enjoyable. On my first visit I had an excellent "Oak Aged Martinez" followed by a good, if a tad too sweet, "Trader Vic's style" mai tai. And the cocktail menu is helpfully listed "in order of similarity to dreamy fluffy clouds transitioning to bitter angry poets." Given that, I suppose I'll have to work my way through it starting from the bottom.
But the thing that will limit my visits is the unfortunate decor. I guess a lot of people like very bright lighting and stark industrial modernism with their foie gras, but it is antithetical to the warm dark glow I prefer in a bar.
