Local and State officials, Fred Camillo, Lauren Rabin and Ryan Fazio will take over the Bistro V bar, 339 Greenwich Ave. in Greenwich, as guest bartenders to support the community on Tuesday, Jan. 18 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. The event will raise money for local nonprofit organizations selected by each of the hosts.
Bistro V launched the guest bartending event series in October in an effort to support the local community while raising awareness for the restaurant’s Happy Hour menu.
The name of the special cocktail/mocktail that was created for this month’s promotion is inspired by the year Greenwich was founded ”“1640. The mocktail version of 1640 is set for $10 while the cocktail version with vodka is $15.
The restaurant’s Happy Hour menu will be extended until 6:30 p.m. during the event. Takeout and limited outdoor bar tables will be available to help manage the capacity of the indoor event and allow for social distancing in the bar area. Masks are worn by Bistro V staff and are required for anyone moving around the bar and restaurant areas. Anyone that has been exposed to Covid-19 or has Covid-like symptoms should not attend this event.
“During this time we’re urging people to use their best judgment when attending any social events,” said Fazio.
Bistro V is open for lunch and dinner on weekdays and weekend brunch on Saturday and Sunday. The restaurant switches back to its original concept, Versailles Patisserie, during the morning hours (8 to11 a.m.). Versailles is known for cakes, pastries and viennoiserie made from authentic French recipes. Visit Bistro V online for more information or versaillesgreenwich.com.
