Insiders sneak through a hidden side door ready for a provocative evening that’s both irreverent and irresistible.  Bartenders stir, mix and twist their extravagant house cocktails – their royal lineage without rebuke.  A strange calm sets the mood for rules to be challenged as guests arrive one by one.  Game. Set. Match.  This is Paris at its finest!
