The thing that caught my eye was that he had a knife roll, like a chef. Inside were his tools; muddlers, openers, strainers, knives, channel cutters etc. This was the first time I had seen a bartender with his own play set (all my bartenders ask to borrow knives and garnish tools). Instead of ignoring the show I paid attention and was well rewarded, and so were my friends. I make a great martini. Oh, and buy "The Craft of the Cocktail"! -Lee Dunteman I first saw Dale DeGroff maybe 10 years ago on a tv clip about making a real martini.

This is the man that inspires our own Chief Ethanolmixologist and is probably responsible for most of our best (and some of our worst) drinking moments.
