Last Tuesday evening we attended a 52 Martinis meetup. Organized by Forest Collins, it was held at Club Rayé, a chic bar in the Montorgueil district of Paris.
The party was held in the bar’s Kafka room, accessible down a stairway and through a narrow tunnel painted with vertical stripes of black and white. “Rayé” is French for “striped,” and the design of the entire bar reflects this theme.
The bartender was preparing “Forest Collins,” a drink made with 5cl of juniper-infused Monkey Shoulder, 3cl lemon juice, and 2cl sugar syrup. Shake and serve over ice topped up with soda water.
Fanny Pothier was there taking pictures.
Bihter Sabanoglu posed for a photo with Forest.
Forest and Fanny went behind the bar to pose with bartender Dio for a photograph.
And toward the end of the evening, Monique and Forest went upstairs to pose with the owner, Kein Cross.
A good time was had by all!
