Praise for Meehan's Bartender Manual

Praise for The PDT Cocktail Book:

  • "Cocktails are evolving and becoming more culinary, and with that evolution more skill is required from the craftsmen and -women who make them. Jim Meehan of PDT is busily mapping the DNA of cutting-edge cocktails and I am delighted he has decided to publish his delicious findings. The PDT Cocktail Book is a marvelous, classically illustrated book that I believe to be the book of the decade if not more." --Dale DeGroff, master mixologist and founding president of The Museum of the American Cocktail
  • "Jim Meehan's book is, as the subtitle says, a manual for bartenders, and one that will undoubtedly become a bible for many of them. But any cook--or, for that matter, person--who's seriously interested in mixology will quickly realize it's the definitive work, a roadmap for a lifetime of amazing cocktails." -- Mark Bittman, New York Times columnist and author of How to Cook Everything
