Drink in Focus: Lee cocktail at The Green Door


Subtle, discreet playfulness has been the name of the game for The Green Door since it opened three years ago. Even the address is playful – it’s listed as being on 97 Wellington Street, but can only be accessed by a dimly lit door on adjoining Graham Street, which once belonged to speakeasy 001.

Its recently updated menu of signatures features drinks like the Lee, which combines the bar’s food-based inspiration with a solid knowledge of classics, plus an added twist. For this latest batch of original cocktails, The Green Door has turned to an unconventional muse. Mr Koo is one of Hong Kong’s rising indie bands, taking the stage at Clockenflap the same year The Green Door opened to play its unique blend of surf rock, shoegaze and blues.

“Mr Koo envisioned this menu years ago,” says co-founder Arlene Wong, “and we are honoured to have him bring it to life. He wanted to create [along] a theme of ‘strangers/friends/lovers overnight after a few drinks’. The idea centres around the romantic experience of unexpectedly meeting the woman of his dreams over cocktails.”
