TOTC2016 Seminar: The Bartender Spy: Frank Meier

This seminar was featured during Tales of the Cocktail®. MOD: Noah Rothbaum PANELIST: David Wondrich and Fernando Castellon Moderated by Noah Rothbaum with Guest Speakers Fernando Castellon and David Wondrich. Covert World War II missions for the French resistance, forged passports, delicious cocktails: Welcome to the amazing world of legendary Hotel Ritz Paris bartender and spy Frank Meier. While his Art Deco 1936 book, The Artistry of Mixing Drinks, is praised by cocktail lovers and his signature concoction, the Bees’ Knees, is still on menus, much of his heroic wartime activities have just come to light. This panel will seek to fill in the gaps in Meier’s life (including his time training at New York’s famed Hoffman House) and help to explain why he mysteriously disappeared and what happened to him after the war. About Tales of the Cocktail®: With hundreds of opportunities developed specifically for industry professionals from bartenders to distillers, Tales of the Cocktail® is the drinks industry’s annual meeting place for exchanging new ideas, products, and techniques featuring in-person education, tastings, networking, and awards programming.
