The New Vibe in Baku

The fancy spot certainly seems to tell the story of today's Baku. A former humble teahouse, the place has now been reborn as one where "local movers and shakers" can drink flaming cocktails made with caviar foam and watch an hourly display of an art installation that is supposed to mimic flowing gold. Indeed.

We learned these details from the blog of Fluid Movement, a London-based bar consulting company that is teaching Chinar's Azeri bartenders such important things as how to safely light the bar on fire (something that a bartender in New York was recently arrested for doing) and how to make a Baku Bellinin (secret ingredient? Mango foam, of course). See photos here.
