Travelling through time, Zia is bringing her mystery to a secret hideaway – ZLB 23. The hideout’s surreal decor and theatrical concoctions evoke an absinthe dream. With its hidden entrance, vintage décor and speakeasy style, it transports guests back in time to the era of Prohibition. This urbane space reveals an atmosphere of
transcendental glamour where gatherings are held over magnetic music, remarkable dining, and prohibition cocktails.
ZLB23 offers fabled food, curated to reveal the lost recipes from the East. You’ll find that the ingredients, measurements, and methods unite to tell a flavourful narrative
buried in time. The skilled mixologists have crafted a menu of prohibition cocktails, each with its own unique flavour and story. These might sound classic but are futuristic
in taste, look and sense such as the Paleman, inspired by the well-known Halloween monster, or Kyoto Sunrise which pays homage to the Land of the Rising Sun. And for those who want a taste of the good life, the menu also features a selection of rare and premium spirits. The last of the order but standing taller still is magnetic music, relaying a firm promise of original and curated music, making it a noteworthy destination for events that you would not want to miss.
As part of their ‘Best Bars at ZLB23’ initiative, The Leela Palace Bengaluru has curated a meticulous and handpicked line-up of exceptional bars to take over ZLB23 from all over the world, with some of these bars making their debut in India.
