Episode 8: Marian Beke | The Gibson

Episode eight brings us Marian Beke. Incredibly interesting and humble. He walks us through the professional journey that brought him to #London. How he dealt with both the #language barrier and the differences in #culture.

We learn about the #global language of #bartending, the attention to detail required to be regarded as one of the best #cocktail #bartenders of his era, the realities of #bar #awards and harsh truth of owning a #venue during #covid-19.

Touching on his days as a #drinks #consultant, Marian recounts his experiences and how he bridged his #cocktail creations from working behind the stick at #Nightjar to running the helm of his own ship at The Gibson.

Expect lots of chat around #garnish and #glassware and his personal friendships and experiences with the likes of Erik Lorincz, Ago Perrone and Alex Kratena.
