The modern Asian cuisine at Torafuku in Vancouver has garnered solid reviews since it opened. Now, the restaurant can add award-winning cocktails to its list of accolades. Bar Manager Max Borrowman’s “The All England Club” cocktail recently secured a win for Torafuku at the regional final for the Global Beefeater MIXLDN Bartender Competition, helping them advance to Canada’s National Beefeater Competition.
Borrowman's modern-London-inspired cocktail, made with both Beefeater Dry and Beefeater 24, with a touch of Earl Grey, is a twist on the Negroni, making it a good sipper for tea time in our world.
The National champions will compete for the global champion title in London the last week of January 2016.
