What Inspired You To Make Your Amber Royale Cocktail?

“My name is Bogdan, I’m 32 originally from Romania, I became a bartender because I was intrigued by the science behind creating a cocktail, the art behind garnishes and the taste of some drinks that normally I would’ve avoided.

I’ve been a bartender for my current place for 1y and a half, first bartender, slowly moving up, and now training all new sites, creating cocktails for the company, and designing the bars for the new sites. The sales have doubled since I joined and now currently have a team of 5 bartenders I’m looking after. We’re the 3/48 busiest restaurant in the company.” – Bogdan Tripon
