“My dream bar is a shitty bar. It’s a bar that was made by people without contractors, architects or designers.” [07:00]

“You should not be invested in what a guest drinks. You should not care. There should be a certain degree of creativity and ownership – but long story short – if somebody wants a vodka soda and bitters don’t try to sell them an Old Fashioned. What people drink is personal and what they need at the time.” [18:00]
