Modern drinking at the Tippling Club
The bar takes a forward-thinking, progressive approach in its latest menu lineup, inspired by modern art
THROUGH the interminable rounds of Covid-19 curbs being tightened and relaxed, bar scene institution Tippling Club has kept its own pace.
Its core principles have not changed since its founding in 2008: a "forward-thinking, progressive" approach, says head bartender Andrew Loudon. This is echoed in the very title of the bar's latest menu, A Guide to Modern Drinking Volume II. Presented as a cloth-bound, metallic-debossed book and launched in August after about a year in the making, it is - as the name suggests - something of a sequel.
While its predecessor riffed off the 1903 French cookbook A Guide to Modern Cookery, thus ironically drawing on the past, this volume takes inspiration from modern art.
