The Banter
The Guys discuss a new trend in 2006: the Avant-garde cocktail. Is it a drink? A chemistry experiment? Hear their take on it.
The Conversation
The Restaurant Guys catch up with Audrey Saunders the year after opening The Pegu Club. They talk about old books and the problem with soda guns. Audrey discusses her vision for Pegu and what inspires and motivates her (and what doesn’t).
The Inside Track
The Guys are frequent guests at The Pegu Club and appreciate Audrey’s mission to create a warm space with delicious libations.
“When you talk about artisan, you're talking about just basic things. It's really all about balance in a cocktail, the way it would be balanced in a dish starting with a classic foundation,” Audrey Saunders on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2006
