Sling Kings
Brian Flanagan=You
At Opera: 1150 B Peachtree St; Midtown; 404.421.3825
Any good barkeep would agree that bartending school is
pretty worthless; they charge a bunch of money, coach you on
dumb drinks nobody orders, and don't even teach you the
lyrics to "Kokomo"! Removing the bs and getting all
next-level, Sling Kings.
Just started by Opera's head bartender, Kings is a two-week
booze boot camp that turns you into a stone-cold,
cash-raking bar pimp via cocktail skills, insider insights
on both the art and business of dealing hooch, copious
tutelage on showmanship, and a really good fake-job story to
tell your parents, now that you've been fired for spending
two weeks at a bar boot camp. Things kick off with
three-hour daily classes at Opera, where they'll equip you
with a small arsenal of bar toolery (bar key, shaker tins,
mixing glass, etc); basic learnin' begins with perfect
free-pouring, seamless two-hand pours, plus speed/high
volume training, all while picking up cool historic booze
factoids to share with your enraptured customers, like how
the founder of Paul Mitchell hair products created Patron in
the back of a station wagon, and the story behind the
Bacardi bat logo (because nobody'll buy vampire booze,
silly). Things then get serious, as you master flashy tricks
like spinning shakers & rolling 'em down your arm, tossing
glasses behind your head (and hopefully catching them),
using a speed bottle opener to furiously pop caps and bat
'em into the trash mid-air, and even how to wing cocktail
napkins and hit a person as far as six feet away, which nets
you significantly better tips than doing it with loogies.
The idea's to get you sick-nasty enough to work at a place
where you could earn $250-plus per shift; aiding that,
you'll receive a letter of recommendation upon graduation,
plus you get a night at Opera with all your tips, which
unlike Doug Coughlin's, won't lead you to cheat on Gina
Gershon, only to ruin your life by knocking up Elisabeth
Shue with twins.
There's also a 1-week course for advance master bartending;
