#SCHWEINGEHABT2022

Nick & Nora Spirituosen was a glorious little shop in Weststadt on Körnerstraße, near the Gutenbergplatz. It opened in 2014 with much fanfare among the budding cocktail community and sadly closed its doors in 2018. The man behind Nick & Nora is my friend Sven Brunner. It gives me a great measure of joy to be able to bring a bit of the old days back again as we team up to prepare a menu of boozy drinks at Espresso Tostino during SCHWEIN GEHABT (21.5). Stop in and see us from 19:00 and I'll tell you some stories. :)

Who's spinning records this weekend?

Friday (20.05) - DJ Chris Cacavas wowed (Past tense? More on that later - see below) the audience tonight with his exquisitely sculpted beard, plus JJ Cale, Jimmy Rodgers, Mickey Newbury, Lee Hazelwood and some other rather obscure smooth guitar tracks. 19:00 - 22:00.

Saturday (21.05) - Super hero DJ Johannes Fleck! A heady mix of funk, 80s soul, groove, folk rock and spacey stuff. 19:00 - 22:00.

Wait a minute... Isn't this newsletter late??

Right you are, oh observant Internet traveler. I began to think about the newsletter on Tuesday and mused how it would make sense to send it out the following day as I was hosting the Commodore's Cocktail Cinema at Kinemathek on Thursday with DJ Enkidu and screening an 80s classic, as I am wont to do. However, the business of preparing for said Cocktail Cinema got in the way of making sure anyone knew about it. That said, we had a great turnout. It was actually our best one yet! The party vibe was ON! 

Well, then what happened? You are persistent with these questions. Sheesh. Okay, well, I had to clean all that stuff up and start to prepare for tomorrow's event, if you really must know. And tonight, I was lucky enough to check out my good friend Magnus Sauer at Cafe Nun performing with his fantastic trio, How I Left.  Check out their beautiful vinyl release here.

Coffee and Cake from 15:00 

Sure, we're not winning any prizes for being the early bird, but I know a lot of you sleep in on the weekend anyway. So don't come around here and start judging me. I see you. Anyway, let's be friends. And what do friends do? They drink coffee and eat cake. And now that I'm sufficiently into this paragraph I will mention for those dedicated enough to have read this far, on Sunday we offer a sort of happy hour for cake. See, we'd hate to throw it out, and the people who work here have already had their fair share of discounted cakes, so we'd like to offer you, our friends, our loyal customers, a piece of cake to go with your particularly strong coffee for just €2. That's right, folks. As my dad always says, how can they sell it that cheap and stay in business? Except that he's being ironic because he usually thinks everything is overpriced. He also doesn't tip well at all, but what can I do, he's my dad. So, see you on Sunday. For cake. And if we run out we also have lots of liquor.
