BUREAU launch with New Order 22nd Oct.

new members bar Bureau opened its doors this wednesday night with a small and exclusive opening. The sponsors included Laurent Perrier (of which I didnt see much), Courvoisier (which was mixed into a punch that wasnt exactly mind blowing) and Kettel One vodka. the bar staff made some great cocktails which were amazingly strong. the crowd was very mixed with some city slickers (you know the poor bastards who all look the same from the city) and the usual fashion scenees. Bureau is super small inside but very nicely designed and well thought through.

the theme they are trying to aim for is called the "anti club", what the hell is an anti club? apparently this: gone are silly door policies, velvet ropes and burly bouncers:instead the gates to its sumptuous surroundings open with the swipe of your membership card on a discret hidden door. (its opposite Red Bar in Kingly Court, sorry to spoil the surprise)

oh forgot to mention asahi beer also sponsored, which didnt see. so if will ever go, do not drink the punch, but the vodka cocktails.

I dont know what the music will be like as New Order and Jerry Bouthier played.
