Olive Bar & Kitchen brings The Pontiac, one of Asia’s 50 Best Bars, to Mumbai

Description: Olive Bar & Kitchen, the Olive Group’s flagship restaurant in Bandra which has been a mainstay in Mumbai for the last 18 years is delighted to announce a collaboration with The Pontiac, a craft cocktail dive bar in Hong Kong, focused on inclusivity. On Asia’s 50 Best Bars list since the inception of the awards in 2016, The Pontiac is known for its well curated cocktail list featuring only nine highly unique, signature drinks.

Tink Aira Chan and Arlene Wong will get Mumbai in party mode, with six of their best-selling cocktails. On the limited-edition cocktail menu will be the bar’s most popular cocktail to date, The Hobnail, rye whiskey, house-made ginger syrup, lemon juice, Averna and Angora bitters; the tropical yet funky Dope Slap, Pisco, Giffard banana liqueur, lemon juice, Laphroaig, sugar syrup and orange bitters; My Name is Nobody (MNIM), a chili-hot take on the classic Negroni, made with Chili-infused Bacardi carta blanca rum, Vermouth Rosso, Aperol and Fernet branca; the sweet yet tart Snake Sour, Plantation dark rum, Amaretto, house-made, spiced rhubarb bitters, lemon juice, sugar syrup and egg white; Heisenberg, gin, vermouth bianco, blue curacao, lemon, simple syrup, and absinth; and Rainbow Maker, a shot of Jameson and Budweiser, infused overnight with pickle.

In Hong Kong, The Pontiac boasts eye-catching décor along with a retro rock-n-roll vibe, that is both fun yet still pays homage to the theme of inclusivity that is so important to everyone involved with the bar. In keeping with this philosophy (which is also one that Olive prioritizes and promotes, with their on-going LGBTQ nights), the entire look and feel of the bar at Olive will be transformed. Elements will include neon lights, feather boas, a disco ball, Pride flags, and a whole lot more, creating a visually exciting space with a strong message at its core.

Date: August 2 & 3, Friday and Saturday

Time: 8:00 PM onwards
