Flagg'd

It's complex, bitter yet almost sweet, warming yet abrasive, with a twist of acidity.  Chris Flagg's personality?  NO, the delicious beverage known as the Flagg Day* at  Porchlight Bar in NYC. (271 Eleventh Avenue - at the corner of 28th Street). Porchlight is housed in an 1890s warehouse containing 1.2 million square feet of space (consuming an entire city block) that Chris's company has owned for 25 years.  It used to just be a warehouse, but a rejuvenation in this lower west side area is making it an attractive place to live and work.

Always great to see a friendly face when traveling!
