There's adrenalin-fuelled bustle in Vivanta by Taj - President's bar, along with sophistication for a price. At this ”Times Nightlife Awards 2010” winner, the vibe is still chilled out, there are no hassles getting in and the music is pumped-up as the night wears on. Flirtatious black jalis create private spaces between the high-octane bar area and the more sedate comfy seating one. Wink makes it to our ”must-visit list” for several reasons… sushi and martinis the largest and most exclusive collection of spirits, and great music too. Flaming cocktails, smoking cocktails, juggling flare cocktails... the excitement is kept alive. They have introduced more wines by the glass. Check out the Detox Cocktail (cheeky name for a concoction of cumin seeds, Pineapple Juice, mint, vodka). A huge choice of rare malts, wines, vodkas, regular scotches, signature specials, specially created Winktinis… all hand-crafted by the winner of the Bacardi competition and Wink Bartender Pramod (ask for the Scarlet Dragon and Reina del Caribbean). You name it, they got it, including Remy Martin Louis XIII Cognac and fancy cigars. Broad beans, Wasabi nuts and green olives are served with all drinks. Check out the Chocolate Mochi, the Yellow Fin Sushi, and Asian Baby Corn here. The bar opens in the evening and it's the older crowd nursing their single malts till 9.30pm. Post 10pm, the younger lot floats in to party.rnP.S. Don't miss the flute and drum performance by Jonqi.rnSPECIAL NIGHTS: Ladies' Night (Wednesdays), Retro & Lounge (Fridays & Saturdays)

Wink is a very sophisticated, lovable and not to forget an award winning bar. I love the music that they play here, the Friday retro nights are just irresistible for me.
The bar is well stocked and everything is very much mind blowing, from malts, vodkas, scotches, wines, beers everything is awesome. In food menu Wink is known for its Sushi. I love this place for its rare charm.

I went to Wink, last Wednesday with my all girl friends. Every Wednesday, Wink has special all ladies night and so we all planned to rock the floor. I loved the ambiance, all bright yet dim and soothing yet hard. We had fun filled evening together. The cocktails and the food were awesome too. Wink is really a superb place to hangout with friends.

For a friday night WINK is a good place to be. The ambience is very chic and the interiors are very modern. The centre bar makes the place buzzing with activity. Good but pricey cocktails. Worth an experience.
