✨Flash Back to Tokyo’s last Call with @thedaveyjones 🥃✨

Celebrating a century of distilling and blending Suntory Whiskey is a journey steeped in legacy, and we're thrilled to have @thedaveyjones of @beamsuntory guide us through the remarkable tale. Picture barrels crafted from rare 250-year-old trees and flavors meticulously coaxed from the marriage of 30 distinct batches of whiskey, each honed over decades. This union culminates in the creation of truly unique bottles, each echoing the mastery of time. Nestled within the elegant walls of #SohoHouseChicago, @hekiunoda of the @japanese_cultural_center brought forth the ancient art of illustrating Kanjis, casting a radiant spotlight on the intricacies of Japanese culture and the meticulous care behind every stroke. To complement the rich flavors and fill the air with magic, @portstainedeye and @vanpaugam curated a vinyl experience that delved into the heartbeat of City pop culture, resonating through a hi-fi sound system—a fitting finale to this sensational celebration. Cheers to a smashing success that brings the essence of Suntory Whiskey to new eyes and a heartfelt appreciation for the artistry behind every sip. 🥃✨ #SuntoryLegacy #JapaneseCulture #WhiskeyJourney #CityPopVinylVibes

Behind the sushi counter, Chef Kaze Chan stands not just as a chef but as a culinary poet, using Omakase Room as his stage to share tales of tradition, innovation, and passion. His artistry extends beyond the boundaries of the plate, creating an immersive experience that transcends the ordinary. Omakase Room at Ramen San Chicago isn't just a dining destination; it's a living testament to Chef Kaze Chan's dedication to storytelling through the language of flavor. Each meal here is not just a feast for the senses but a journey through the rich tapestry of culinary tales spun by a true master of his craft. 🍣📖✨ #OmakaseRoom #SushiStorytelling #CulinaryArtistry Thank you @thedaveyjones of @beamsuntory for leading us to this flavor oasis! More highlights to come from this experience! ✨🥂✨

The secret to capturing low light photos? Low aperture lenses that can see in the dark, a high native ISO sensor, a slower shutter speed and a steady hand. Combine these together and you can unlock the ability to snap in these dark moody venues! Orrrrrr You can hit me up and I’ll come shoot them for you! 📸❤️✨🤝 @kaicastromusic at @arbellachicago

It’s Whit’s birthday and we’ve got a pretty good reason to celebrate her today—she’s officially stepping into the Head Bartender role at Friends of Friends. If you’ve been in the room, you’ve felt it already. Whit leads with care, makes sure nothing (and no one) is out of line behind the bar, and somehow still makes it all feel easy. The kind of presence that makes a busy night feel like a good hang is largely thanks to @misswhitnay A few things about her: -Whit grew up in the beautiful burbs of Chicago -Catches her outside-of-FoF hangs at @edelweisschicago (pool 🎱) or @bangersandlace (friends 🤗) -Guilty pleasure: Vanderpump Rules + a Cali burrito 🌯from @sabrosochicago (please sponsor us @bravotv 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻) -FoF drink of choice: tepache 🍍in a frosty mug or the Fruity & Savory — “like a hearty hug” If you see her tonight, wish her a happy birthday and congrats. We’re lucky to have her leading from behind the bar. 📸 @crystallotusstudios
