Caretaker
Caretaker strives to bring back the golden era of bartending with its unique setting mimicking that of a New York cocktail lounge area. As an American inspired lounge, they value the culture that their inspiration has brought with them as well as the diversity of the clients frequenting the bar. An intricate process of crafting cocktails is implemented at Caretaker. This starts from a careful selection of the ingredients to the manner of pressing the fruits to obtain fresh juice. It even carefully selects the amount of ice for every cocktail to come up with a drink that would surely make guests crave for more.
