Celeb and Rocker Haunt Sunset Marquis Launches New Menu and Cocktails at Bar 1200
The famed Sunset Marquis Hotel has experienced many changes over the past few years, with extensive renovations, a new gallery and the addition of Executive Chef Guillaume Burlion - who hails from France and has worked with Paul Bocuse and Joel Rubichon, at The Restaurant and overseeing all the hotel menus.

Bar 1200 is the first point of contact for guests after dropping your car at the valet and walking into the lobby entrance. On any given night rock stars from Steven Tyler to actors Billy Bob Thorton are drifting in and out of the bar to the pool, a villa or from the basement recording studio.
Veteran Bar Manager Matthew Salinas, from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, is shaking things up to keep guests interested. The most popular drink for the pool is Thai One with Blanco Tequila, fresh pineapple, basil, agave and sriracha for a kick. At the bar, ‘Billyburg’ is the a hit with a two shot drink of whiskey and pickle juice that was fashioned from Salinas’ visits to popular New York City haunts such as The Breslin. (Apparently, it’s also DJ Samantha Ronson’s favorite drink.) Other top orders include the Kentucky Mule and Ginger Lemon Mojito.
If you're curious on how to make these concoctions yourself, the hotel is starting a series of mingling classes on June 16, that will be a girls only bar-tending 101. To see what you might learn, plus what’s on the menu, watch our slideshow. [The Feast]
