Its B'Day Time For Red Light!

Having been the venue for some of the city's most happening parties for a year, Red Light Bar & Lounge is celebrating its 1st Anniversary bash on Tuesday, December 16th 2003 9.00 p.m onwards alongwith the really real cocktail circuit. And it promises that the evening will definitely not be sober, so join in to go wild!

Red Light, is India's first Flair and Free Pour Cocktail bar along the lines of the best managed bars in the world. Conceptualized by Sudheer Bahl of Khyber fame and the consultant couple Deepu and Shilpin Patel, the upscale bar has had many celebrity inputs in every aspect of its build.

Parmeshwar Godrej has given the interiors her inimitable, international touch being loosely based on an Asian minimalist look. Richard Greenwood & Nick Hawkins, winners of 'Flair Bartender' awards, have designed the wine and spirit list alongwith being present in the training of the bartenders in the beginning months, which comes across at first sight across the counter. Alongside classic spirit drinks are cocktails, multi-liquors and shooters, to set the stage as high as one wants.

Also 'imported' by Sudheer Bahl is Evan Gwynne, a highly gifted Chef from Nobu, London who has put together a veritably exotic menu to suit the varying need of the Indian palate. A hint of tamarind, spicy jalapenos, smoked cheese, a splash of sake, saffron, fiery harissa, lychees and grapes, all of which find their way onto this eclectic selection of international tapas at Red Light.

And then DJ Tushqa, having performed at European clubs like Monkey Bar, Manray, Summer Terrace & Mondo, puts together unique remixed sounds that cover genres from lounge to rock to blues to acid jazz to soul, dance and funk and maybe even pop, but always retaining one common thread...a funky, upbeat groove that will keep
people coming back for more.
