"My own kitchen, because then I have everything I want - just how I like it. If you forced me to go out - well, I'd opt for The Dover in Mayfair - the drinks are great and the lighting makes everyone look so sexy - which is so important in a great bar...I also really love the new Martini Bar at Hawksmoor St Pancras - and not just because of the Martinis!"
"It's Martini - and I'm not just saying that! My preference is 5:1 - gin:vermouth with an olive AND a twist. A year after the publication of my book - Martinis still have my heart. I'm a sucker for old school bars like Rules so I am excited to see what the bar will be like in Jeremy King's revived Simpson's In The Strand."
"What's In? A move back to simplicity... I don't want to hear about the lab where the drink was created - I just want to enjoy a delicious drink. What's Out? Really long, wordy cocktail menus that require a glossary to understand!"
Prefers home as the ideal cocktail venue for full control and personalized drinks, while The Dover in Mayfair and the Martini Bar at Hawksmoor St Pancras are favored for excellent drinks and flattering lighting. The Martini is the go-to order, specified as a 5:1 gin to vermouth ratio served with both an olive and a twist, and remains an enduring favorite. Anticipation exists for Jeremy King's revived Simpson's In The Strand and its traditional bar atmosphere. There is a clear preference for a return to simple, delicious cocktails and a rejection of long, technical, jargon-heavy cocktail menus.
