Bar codex David Palethorpe

Fresh breath is the main bartender’s rule.

Necessity made me to become the leader in Lisbon’s cocktail scene. Otherwise, I would be coming home penniless.

I hate computer work.

Listening to your staff is the most important about being the boss.

The best bartender doesn’t always make the best bar-manager.

For me success is paying the bills on time.

To make my angry – hide my TV control.

My bar wouldn’t survive without lemons.

Best cocktail for politicians is the Molotov cocktail.

My ideal guest is the polite one.

Life if too short to take shit from anybody.

Being able to pronounce any word in Portuguese makes me proud.

To stay on top – never stand still, always push forward.
