How do you know it’s overpriced? Might just be a jazzy way to serve water?

If the barman is wearing a suit you know you’re going to overpay for your drinks

It’s $75, not overpriced at all:
$5 for the water
$2 sales tax
$5 prep fee
$8 for materials
$5 presentation fee
$50 mandatory gratuity

I tried this at home but it was disgusting. I forgot to spin the ice, that step is crucial

I like it. Let’s not pretend we all wouldn’t mind having been served water this way atleast once in our life.
It could feel overpriced if you do not align with the intent of this beverage presentation.

Yeah it’s over the top, but this guy is one of the top mixologist/bartenders in Japan. Putting on a show with every pour, even something as bland as water, is part of the reason you’d go to his bar.

I was at a restaurant a couple weeks ago where a mixed drink had spaghetti water in it.

I’d have been all in, but he didn’t rim the glass with crushed ice. Like, literally what the fuck?

There is actually something called a water sommelier and its super stupid.
A guy name Martin Riese is the worlds leading of these pretentious r/hydrohomies, but from the interviews i’ve seen, he seems like a decent guy who just really likes good quality h2o.
This is probably free. If you’re there, you’re already spending a lot. It’s an experience, and he’s probably going to get plenty of tips, so it’s worth the show.

Ummm, sorry to ask but can I actually have my water with no ice? It hurts my teeth

My main gripe is those iceballs are trash. I mainly worked in dive and sports bars but when we broke out the molds we actually put some effort into making the ice look nice.

No one serving or making food should be wearing long draped sleeves.
