White Moon Bar, Manila, Philippines

Finding a good bar and - even more - a good Martini in Manila is a hard job, but somebody has to do it.  After a number of attempts, including a bar run only by dwarf (if you do not believe me check this out), I got to the White Moon Bar, placed in the Ocean …

Le Stanze, Bologna, Italy

In the very centre of Bologna lays Palazzo Bentivoglio, a massive 15th century building that used to house the ruling family of the city. In one corner of the palace, the private chapel of the Bentivoglio family is still there, with its high ceilings, original paintings and statues, and a very unique athmosphere. Now, what …

Kartabianka, Bologna, Italy

If you believe that a small city like Bologna cannot have a first-class Martini Bar, take a stroll to Kartabianka. Recently opened by  three of the best bartenders in Italy, this is the place to be for some serious drinking in town. Go there at the aperitivo time and enjoy some quite chatting with professional …

Moon Bar, Bangkok, Thailand

Another amazing skybar in Bangkok, on the 61st floor of the Bayan Tree 5 stars Hotel. The 360° view on the city is breathtaking, the bar is open air on a corner of the terrace, it feels like drinking Martini in the sky. Unmissable. Staying for dinner can be quite expensive, but worth. Again, as …

Dolce & Gabbana Martini Bar, Milan, Italy

Born out of a joint venture between D&G and Martini and in the hearth of the fashion district in the centre of Milan, the D&G Martini Bar is a must for Martini fans visiting Italy. The place is wonderful, with a huge glass chandelier in the middle of the room (if you try to take …

Doppel Bar, Buenos Aires, Argentina

At the border of San Telmo, the Tango barrio of BsAs, the Doppel Bar is said to be the best cocktail place in town. In my opinion, this is very true: a special art noveau environment, perfect music, marvellous cocktails prepared with selected ingredients. The young and wise bartender will bring you along a drinking tour, …

Dry Martini, Barcelona, Spain

Beautiful bar in uptown Barcelona, this is a temple of Martini. Opened in 1978 by famous catalan bartender Javier de las Muelas, the "Martineria", as natives call it, is a whole Martini experience and an excuse to visit Barcelona. Perfect music, fantastic bartenders (old style Catalan guys), and especially a cure in every ingredient and …

Andres Carne de Res, Bogota, Colombia

Well, Andres Carne de Res is not a Martini bar, it is a circus, a daylight dream, a  world exhibition of human intelligent craziness. You still can get a Martini there, so here we go. You have to travel some 45 minutes to the outskirts of Bogota to reach it, and once you are there …
