Jim Meehan, PDT's innovative operator and mixmaster, is revolutionizing bar books, offering all 304 cocktail recipes available at PDT plus behind-the-scenes secrets. From his bar design, tools, and equipment to his techniques, food, and spirits, it's all here, stunningly illustrated graphic novel style by Chris Gall.

Jim Meehan talks to Googlers about his path to PDT, answers their questions and demos a fancy mixology technique or two.

PDT is a unique NYC bar that recalls the era of hidden Prohibition speakeasies. To gain access, you walk into a raucous hot dog stand, step into a phone booth, and get permission to enter the serene cocktail lounge.
