Aside
from
a
good
lineup
of
drinks
and
the
very
"exclusive"
atmosphere
it
lends,
what
sets
The
Bar
at
15
Stamford
from
others
is
the
intuition
of
the
bartenders
that
spells
out
the
difference
between
having
a
good
night
out
and
having
a
great
experience
on
the
overall.
Not
all
bartenders
have
the
gift
of
intuition
-
I
met
Francis
for
the
first
time
-
he
was
three
days
old
at
the
bar.
I
ordered
my
first
two
drinks
from
the
menu
and,
as
I
always
do
to
"test"
expertise,
I
ordered
my
third
cocktail
but
on
the
basis
of
his
recommendation
and
being
not
on
the
menu.
He
started
talking
about
what
he
observed
on
my
palate
and
preferred
taste
-
and
basically
plucked
some
basil
leaves
from
the
potted
herbs
and
mixed
them
with
citrus
juice,
gin,
and
whatever
else
was
there.
He
basically
nailed
it.
And
nailed
the
fourth,
the
fifth,
and
so
much
so,
basically
nailed
my
entire
bar
experience.
His
expertise
and
depth
of
experience
manifested
through
his
attentiveness
to
the
guest's
likes
and
preferences
and
his
creativeness
and
resourcefulness
in
crafting
a
good
cocktail.
A
good
bar
will
not
run
without
good
leadership.
At
the
helm
is
the
man
himself,
Edriane.
He
runs
the
bar
with
an
entrepreneurial
mindset
-
as
if
it
were
his
own.
On
top
of
creative
direction
on
the
drinks
within
the
menu,
Edriane
is
so
passionate
about
in
making
sure
that
guest
have
a
great
experience.
He
is
very
hands-on
leader
-
from
conceptualising
their
bespoke
events,
to
creating
their
presence
on
social
media,
and
to
the
very
mundane
upkeep
of
the
bar.
He
is
also
very
hospitable
and
accommodating
-
he
will
find
ways
to
make
sure
that
you
have
a
good
time.
I
wouldn't
want
to
forget
mentioning
their
very
talented
bartenders
-
look
out
for
Timothy
who
does
very
very
good
Assam
and
Lemongrass+Chilli
shots.
He
knows
his
local
flavours
very
well!
Liza
is
also
nice
and
don't
be
deceived
by
her
very
pretty-looking
innocent
drinks
-
they
are
packed
with
so
much
alcohol
-
living
through
her
mighty
Russian
background.
Because
of
the
experience
and
most
especially
the
people
who
are
behind
it,
you
wont
be
surprised
that
you
will
keep
coming
back
-
tried
and
tested
as
I
have
gotten
to
know
some
of
its
regulars.
This
has
been
my
favourite
hangout
of
a
bar
these
days...
