CAYA; Who Let the Ghouls Out?!

Dear Lost Souls,

What frightening mix of demons and devils doth wander through the darkened streets? 'Tis the Hallowed Eve . . . and so in reverence to El Día De los Muertos, and as an offering to the Temple of Trick or Treat, we invite you to dig down deep into the cobwebbed breaches of your costume collections . . . tap into your mystical dark powers of demonic creativity, and assemble a mind-bending muddle of costume remnants and randomness . . . to manifest an original mishmash of thematic confusion that is emblematic of the Haberdashery's eclectic cornucopia of alchemical creations. Let your intoxicating talents unleash a textile tempest of terror! The more conceptually convoluted your concoction, the better! Booooo!

Yes, my Spirited Spirit-Loving Spirits! Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . and for Our part, we pledge to lubricate your creativity with our usual brand of seminal mixology. This week we wander ever deeper into the mystical realms of elixirs and blends . . . with a ginger cinnamon tequila infusion tantalizing enough to wake the dead . . . Houston, we're going to need more Mason jars.

Cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en rout to your primary Friday evening séance . . . or to linger eternally! 

Yours!

CAYA; The Gelfand Piano Experiment

Dear Lost Souls,

Calling all piano players! . . . shout out to Greg McCrea, John Graham, and Josh Gelfand! . . . thanks to the generosity of Josh, we now have an in-house Haberdashery Piano on indefinite loan! That means that you piano players no longer need load up your ivory lady, drive her all the way over here, and lug her up the temple stairs to our sacred sanctuary . . . just to jump in the fray. We now have a piano waiting here for your loving attention! Oh the stories she'll tell! . . . how she longs to sing!

Yes, my Melodic Merrymakers! . . . Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. Now all we need is for some Wizard of the Ivory Coast to step up and be the inaugural superstar in the Gelfand Piano Experiment. Who  will it be!!??? This lucky and intrepid individual will be rewarded with one of our signature Haberdashery Cocktails, plus the chance to play with the globally famous Haberdashery House Band! . . . wow! . . . step aside Simon Cowell!

Cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en rout to your primary Friday evening concerto . . . or to linger indefinitely!

CAYA; The Shutdown Is Over!

Dear Lost Souls,

After last week's paralyzing Haberdashery Shut Down . . . and the civic outrage that followed . . . we are back on line; up and running at maximum inefficiency. The glasses are chilling, the infusion are infusing, and the comforting glow NOLA/CAYA hospitality is slowly warming up the hallowed halls of your sacred sanctuary. After another long week in the coal mines, you and your canary really deserve a relaxing evening under our eclectic wishing stars!

Yes, my Promiscuous Patriots! . . . Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening. We invite you to join us in the convening of our weekly covenant, for yet another evening of quality company, crafted cocktails, and tacitly indifferent debate. Help us help you to put your unsolicited sociopolitical opinions on ice.

As always, cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en rout to your primary Friday evening engagement . . . or to filibuster indefinitely!

Yours!

CAYA; The Infusion Inclusion!

Dear Lost Souls,

The Infusion Inclusion Revolution has begun! Sparked by the paradigm shifting aromas of Blade Gin, and facilitated by the incendiary teachings of one of the Haberdashery's most celebrated consulting Alchemists, Prof. Sammie Rayner, CAYA is jumping feet first into the tantalizing world of flavor infusions. This week we will unveil our first meanderings into this new realm of sacred alchemy, testing the waters . . . or aqua vitae, as it were . . . with original gin and vodka infusions prepared with exacting precision under the watchful eye of the Haberdashery's master Alchemists. The results will leave you speechless . . . if not sightless.

Yes, my Gregarious Guinea-pigs, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening . . . and though we come to you with late tidings of our proximate gathering, they too are infused with the same warm flavors and smooth finish that will flow across your discerning palettes as you recline into the joy of a signature cocktail prepared with our latest wondering wanderings through the creativity cathedral nestled within the Haberdashery's sacred sanctuary of eclectic dreams. . . . It's just another evening with familiar faces and warm tidings beneath our bending boughs, in the dappled shade and shadow of our collective low expectations.

As always, cocktails will served at 7:30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en rout to your primary Friday evening venue du jour . . . or to linger indefinitely!

Yours!
