Tavern
65 is a cozy pub just off Wufu 4th Road. It stands
out as one of the more established bars in Kaohsiung,
and owes its popularity to a friendly atmosphere
and good food. It's also an ideal spot to enjoy
some sports, interesting conversation, and a few
good drinks. Part of the attraction is the impressive
number of cocktails on offer--65 to be exact.
Manager/bartender Shawn nominates the Shamrock (also known as the Siesta)
for this month's Cocktail of the Month: "Why? Because it's good
for your eyes!" Seriously, this is a smooth and stylish cocktail
that is as appropriate at a formal event as it is in a casual social
setting. When done right--as it is in Shawn's capable hands--it's delicious
without being overly potent, and carries with it a sense of being simultaneously
fun and sophisticated.
