After dinner I wanted to take advantage of the proximity to Bowery and suggested drinks at The Randolph. The ATM machine next to a dark wooden door (a recurring theme of the night) is the only indication of an entrance, so it should come as no surprise it was started by Milk & Honey alum. It’s fairly low-key on a Tuesday night but on the weekends it packs a good crowd. The space is fairly small with seating at the bar or at one of the few booths along the far wall. The cocktail menu changes seasonally or you can have the bartender craft a drink for you. I opted for both and the bartender liked “my” drink so much  (I only hinted that I liked ginger) that he wrote down the recipe and with the intention of adding it to the menu.
