Episode 96: Romeo’s East Village, with Evan Hawkins

Romeo’s opened in New York City this past December, promising to bring a new kind of cocktail experience to the East Village. For this episode, we talk to owner Evan Hawkins about the kind of bar he wanted to open with Romeo’s, and about how the bar combines his years of experience bartending in nightclubs with the lessons he learned at craft cocktail bars like Mother’s Ruin and Broken Shaker.
