Restaurant Eugene's Sergio Leone

Published on: 06/08/2006

COCKTAIL CLASSICS

It's all about the classics at Restaurant Eugene (277 Peachtree Road, Atlanta). Every Friday starting June 9, Executive Chef Linton Hopkins and company re-create old-school drinks for Classic Cocktails Eugene. The restaurant puts a fresh spin on recipes from "How to Mix Drinks or the Bon-Vivant's Companion," which some refer to as the bartender's bible. They're taking it seriously by making their own tonic water, soda and bitters. Fork over $25 and experience three different cocktails and food pairings. The first batch includes the gin and vermouth-laced Undeniable Truth, the vodka-tinged Gloria's Gimlet and the Italy-meets-Old-West appeal of the Sergio Leone.
