Perruche, Paris
Drinks & Dresscode: Here they serve a small selection of artfully mixed classics such as Moscow Mule, Negroni and Bellini. Five creative cocktails complete the offer. The focus is on a fairly extensive selection of excellent wines; another focus is on the champagne offering, and even wider is the range of spirits. Small snacks such as truffled toast accompany the drinks. The bar includes a restaurant where people meet for lunch or dinner. There's no official dress code - but it's Paris. It should already be smart & elegant.

Kaira Rooftop, Göreme
Drinks & Dresscode: While the spirits and wine list is rather small - for example, you can get by with two vodka brands and three types of gin - the classics card is all the more extensive. It seems that no drink is unavailable here. 12 signature variations of the classy mixed drinks fill an entire page in the menu. Tip: how about a Dark Dream of gin, Campari and sweet vermouth? The drinks can also be enjoyed without a dress code.

Panorama: This is one of those bars with a view that are even more spectacular at sunset than at night or during the day. Because then the rock formations of Cappadocia shine in golden light and the mood becomes almost a little mystical. The Rooftop Bar is part of the restaurant of the same name, and that in turn is located on the roof of the Artemis Cave Suites. Reservations are not accepted.
