The Borsch at Maison Boulud Maison Boulud, located in the posh Ritz Carleton Hotel, serves French cuisine with a modern twist. The restaurant is also known for serving some of the most delicious cocktails in town. Try the Borsch, complete with Cazadores Reposado Tequila, black current liquor, beet juice, ginger, tobasco sauce and sriracha bitters. Of course, given the stauts of Maison Boulud, the cocktails come at a hefty price, but for a cocktail as intricate as the latter, it’s worth every penny.
