"The owners of La Mercerie, a French restaurant in Soho, have a new bar. The tiny Guild Bar opens today, November 14, in the design store Roman and Williams Guild; it’s owned by Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch, the same team behind La Mercerie (who also designed Le Coucou). The five-seat bar serves cocktails made with salted pineapple, Sichuan peppercorns, and Madras curry." - Luke Fortney
