For a few nights lucky guests in Macau will be able to savor an array of exotic cocktails from Sam Mahdy, a prominent mixologist from Enigma, Palazzo Versace, Dubai. He will be guest bartending at Vida Rica Bar, and he will be showcasing all his most popular cocktails inspired by Persian culture and gastronomy.
He spent several months researching Persian traditions, and cuisine, and he found a strong connection between Iranian literature and cuisine, and so he decided to name the cocktails he created after famous Persian poems and writings. An example is Zarfarnamah (En. Epistle of Victory), a refreshing cocktail inspired by the victory letter sent by Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1705 to the Mughal Emperor of India, Aurangzeb after the Battle of Chamkaur. Another classic from him is Vis and Ramin – a beautifully crafted creation which took inspiration from the eponymous ancient Persian love story by Gorgani. Come taste the history and culture of Persia in liquid form – only at Vida Rica Bar.
When: 9:00pm—11:00pm, September 21—September 23
Where: Vida Rica Bar, Mandarin Oriental Macau, 945 Avenida Dr. Sun Yat Sen, Nape, Macau
