Gherkin for garnish and pickled brine in the cocktail, because I made my Filthy Martini choice: gin. A vodka ‘tini at new bar and restaurant Wilcox would bring with it caperberry and caper brine. There are classic cocktails too: Martini, Bellini, Manhattan, Margarita, Old Fashioned, Mai Tai and a bloody good Sour. As well as a contemporary cocktail list: In Wilcox Fashion mixes bourbon, bitters and grapefruit, and is easy on the pocket (all cocktails are $16). Beers are tap and bottled, wine is by the glass – a thoughtful wine list from Bonds Corner. The bar at Wilcox with exposed bricks and marble top faces the street. To the back of the venue, restaurant tables are copper-lined and carry a classically crafted menu with winning dishes like lobster ravioli and snapper fillet. Smiling faces. Friendly service. This north-side haven has lifted the Miller Street game.
