The Lincoln

The look: New York’s Chrysler building and The Great Gatsby inspired the luxurious white leather booths, marble bar and modern supper club with plush armchairs. Brass mushroom lights and antique chandeliers ice the cake.
Best for: Living out your 1920s flapper fantasies. Avoid the dreary real world with anyone from a lover to your mother.
Signature drink: Plum and Orange Cobbler - made with fresh plums and oranges, stirred with plum wine, lime juice and champagne ($15). Hmmmm ….
Soundtrack: A mixture of lounge music to upbeat and funky tunes from bands like C + C music Factory and Café del Mar.
On the menu: An extensive tasting menu available in all bars includes oysters ($3.50 per oyster); Polenta chips with salsa ($10).
The wow factor: The downstairs New York styled underground disco, with Prince’s former DJ Ricky Albert spinning 1980s retro tunes (with a pole for the adventurous).
If this bar were an animal it would be: A peacock because it's sleek and memorable.
