42 at Gymkhana

42 is the relatively new bar opening from Gymkhana, occupying the space underneath the popular two-Michelin starred Indian restaurant. Staying true to the theme of the cocktail lounge’s parent restaurant, the interiors emulate a particular private wing of India’s club culture. The clubby inspired den is an elegant and art-laden space with silk rugs, plush sofas and rich mahogany furniture. There’s a mixture of house and classic cocktails – the former inspired by the flavours of India. Signature serves include the Limca lemon drop shot featuring Blanco, Indian lemon, Limca syrup - served in a miniature Limca bottle and The ‘DGC Bitter Lemon’ - inspired by the classic Schweppes Bitter Lemon with subtle flavours of curry leaf.
