How is it possible that you move to one of the chicest, if not the chicest city in the world and not find an even passible martini? Today’s guest is living proof that anything is possible!
Today joining me is the inimitable Forest Collins, founder of 52martinis.com which chronicles her search for the best cocktail bars in Paris as well as loads of other cocktail news from all over France.
She is the creator of the iOS app Paris Cocktails and host of the radio show and podcast, Paris Cocktail Talk. As a freelance writer, she has written for Drinks International, Serious Eats, the World’s Best Bars site, PUNCH drinks, and so many other publications about the Paris cocktail scene. Forest is the Academy Chair for France for the World’s 50 Best Bars and President of the France chapter of the Les Dames d’Escoffier.
We met during Venice Cocktail Week and now I can’t imagine a time when I didn’t know her.
