Shinji's | New York's Hyped-Up Bar 🌟

After finding Sip & Guzzle and The Up & Up completely packed, we decided to call Shinji's for a last-minute reservation. 📞 🍊 The mixologists create drinks right at your table, making it a highly performative experience. They use dry ice for chilling the glasses and interact with you throughout, making it feel like you’re watching a magic show. Each drink is unique and definitely worth trying! 🍸 🌟 Hot Cold Teddy Served in a small glass meant for a single gulp. The surprise is in the taste—it’s half icy cold and half warm, a sweet liqueur with a fascinating blend of cold and hot sensations. Perfect as the first drink to start your night! 🥤 🍃 Shinji’s Gin Fizz The legendary yogurt drink. It’s less sweet than you might imagine, not cloying at all, with a subtle yogurt flavor and a mild alcohol presence. 🍶 Tropicana Ordered mainly for the cute container—a large orange. This fruity drink has a more pronounced alcohol flavor. 🍊 🌊 Handroll We ordered this because it’s from the back of Michelin-starred restaurant Noda. We originally ordered scallops, but the server accidentally brought salmon. Let’s just say the salmon version is tastier; the scallops had a slight fishy flavor, which is pretty standard for handrolls. 🍣 🎢 Potato Chips Highly recommended! These chips are seasoned with Japanese-style spices and seem to be homemade. They’re a bit greasy and salty, but who can resist the joy of junk food! 🍟 🍃 Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 #NewYork #YogurtDrink #NewYorkStoreExploration 🌆🌟
