Cooper Lounge, D Bar Pastry Chef in the National Spotlight

New generation martini bars are highlighted by Saveur Magazine with a focus on each venue's unique twist on the classic martini. The Copper Lounge's Cosmo de Oro (a golden Cosmo) earned the Union Station bar a spot on the list for showing "restraint" in sweetness and its presentation on a silver dish with a side of nibbles, otherwise known as "club car style."

D Bar's pastry chef Lisa Bailey was recognized by Dessert Professional Magazine, a well-regarded sweet treats publication, as one of the 10 top pastry chefs in the US for 2015.  The winners will be featured in the August issue of the magazine and honored at the Top Ten Pastry Chefs in America event on Monday, June 1 in New York City.
