The idea

We are friends who like to meet. We are friends coming from different horizons, country and culture. We are friends who like to have a drink together and share their every day’s life worries and joys, but mostly in a bar. I am French, living in Berlin, Germany, and there is a concept that we have in my country that people accepted very quickly : apéritif. It is this time of the day, after work, when you don’t want to go immediately back home, taking a little time for you, meeting with colleagues and or with friends, sometimes all together, and share a glass of wine, maybe two, not three, well …, at least not without the “one for the road”. After one bottle of very tasty Bourgogne in a bar we’ll talk later about, we had a cocktail at one of the most beautiful bar of the city : CSA bar. You can sip your Martini while enjoying the view of the GDR buildings and in summer, the comfy of the sofas outside is just amazing. The barkeeper is friendly but know his job and so the service is just perfect. I know he has some nice articles, for example in the worldwide known Wallpaper , but also in many others and the advertising coming from customers is of course the best he can have. The music is never too loud, the drinks are memorable and not too strong, the design is just relaxing, the service is there to help you feeling good. And one point you might think is a disadvantage but on the contrary is not : there is no other bar around. Meaning : stay where you are, there is no other place in the neighborhood to get another drink. We were there having a chat and spontaneously we came out with the idea of sharing our experience of having a drink, this is why this article exists and many other will follow, as I did before. Maybe if you are in the area, we could meet, and most of all, feel free to (nicely) comment. Where is the (next) bar ?
