Sylvain’s Cocktails

By now you must know that when I return from my time in New Orleans, I bombard you with all the great new cocktails I have tasted in the city that invented the cocktail. First it was the Jesus H Christ from Maurepas Foods, now the Orange Lazarus from Sylvain. It’s refreshing – the perfect summer cocktail. (PS the food at Sylvain is amazing – for those who like to eat).

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
