Mexico City will reset your mind!
I just need TWO more weeks and I’ll be okay 😩
Stepping into Handshake Speakeasy in Mexico City was like discovering a hidden world, and it truly lived up to its reputation. After hearing so much buzz, I was finally able to experience this incredible bar, and let me tell you, it's a game-changer for anyone who loves innovative cocktails and a unique atmosphere. If you’re looking up ‘Handshake Mexico City menu,’ you’re in for a treat far beyond just a list of drinks. Finding the place is part of the adventure. There's no big sign, just a subtle entrance that whispers exclusivity. Once inside, the ambiance is immediately captivating – that iconic 'HANDSHAKE' sign in prominent gold art deco-style lettering sets the tone. It feels intimate, sophisticated, and perfectly designed for a memorable evening. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate; they don't just serve drinks, they craft experiences. Now, let's talk about the menu. Handshake Speakeasy is renowned for its daring and experimental approach to cocktails. Forget everything you think you know about classic drinks; here, they deconstruct and reinvent. I was fascinated by drinks that incorporated unexpected ingredients, presented beautifully, sometimes with a dark, foamy top or unique garnishes, much like the intriguing glass of dark, foamy drink I saw during my trip. Each cocktail tells a story, and the menu itself is a journey through flavors you never knew could exist together. My personal recommendation? Ask the bartender for their current favorite or a custom creation based on your preferences. You won't be disappointed. Beyond just the drinks, it’s the whole vibe that makes Handshake a standout. The music, the low lighting, and the chatter of delighted guests create an intoxicating energy. It's the perfect spot for a special night out, whether you're with friends or on a romantic date. Getting a reservation can be tricky, so plan ahead! It's definitely worth the effort to secure your spot in this coveted establishment. After an evening at Handshake, exploring more of Mexico City’s vibrant nightlife and culinary scene is a natural next step. Perhaps a late-night street taco, or a visit to a traditional spot like Churreria El Moro, celebrating '90 Años de Tradición,' for some sweet churros and chocolate. The city truly offers an array of experiences, from stunning historical architecture with intricate stained-glass windows to modern, bustling areas like La Roma, where you can find charming cafes and restaurants, much like the one with the lush green ferns and plants I encountered earlier in my trip. Mexico City has a way of captivating your senses and truly resetting your perspective, and uncovering gems like Handshake Speakeasy is a huge part of that magic.
