FEATURED BAR: BERNARD'S Chicago, IL
Located within Waldorf Astoria Chicago in the Gold Coast, the re-introduced, beloved Bernard's was lovingly restored in its former space, re-emerging as an intimate craft cocktail and champagne bar. Design firm, KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group, drew inspiration from Coco Chanel and the men in her life to create a setting reflecting rich, dark colors, classic forms, tweeds from the Scottish Highlands and equestrian influences.
Guests may peruse time-honored favorites like the Sazerac, Side Car, and Boulevardier alongside signature twists such as The Southernmost, mixed with Belvedere, lime juice, condensed milk, and brulée foam, and the No. 5, a beautiful red and purple hued concoction mixed with Ketel One Citron, Yuzu, Jasmine Tea Butterfly Pea Syrup, Oleo Saccorum, and Rose Water.
