What I love about this cocktail is that you get the perfect fusion of sweet, tart and spicy all in one cocktail. I also feel that strawberry is a great summer flavor, and mixing spicy liquor with it gives it some extra flavor flare. If there’s one thing on Fiat Lux’s food menu to pair with this cocktail, it is most definitely the spicy tuna poke. This dish has avocado on the bottom and ahi tuna on the top and is topped with ponzu sauce. It is light, refreshing and has a great combination of sweet and spicy flavors. Another great, light and refreshing dish on the menu is the Greek- style lamb kofta. This dish has a large slather of tzatziki on the bottom of the dish and has a beautiful arrangement of olives, lamb kofta, red peppers and pico de gallo. It is served with roasted rosemary bread. The lamb has a slight spicy flavor and is cooked to perfection. The tzatziki provides the right amount of tart and tangy flavor to balance out the spicy flavor of the lamb. THE WATCH The Watch is located on top of The Restoration Hotel. What I love about this rooftop bar is that there are two separate outdoor-seating areas which showcase two different views. One provides views of more central Photos by Sanjee Soliman.
