Introduction On New Year’s Eve 2006, I opened Death & Co on a quiet side street in Manhattan’s East Village. Within our first couple of years of business, our bar had secured its place among the world’s leading cocktail bars, and by the time Alex became a partner in 2008, we began planning to open more Death & Co bars around the country—and perhaps one day abroad. It wasn’t a matter of if we’d open more locations, but when and where. The when, it turns out, would be more than a decade later. Early negotiations with Death & Co’s two other founding partners, Ravi and Craig, went nowhere, so I put our unfinished agreement in a drawer and focused my attention elsewhere. Alex and I started a hospitality consulting company, Proprietors LLC, and we both moved to Los Angeles. As our new lives and business took off in California, we did our best to put our dreams of opening another Death & Co to rest. We took on numerous projects around L.A., built a proper office and development lab, and expanded our consulting work across the world. As Proprietors LLC grew, so did our ambitions. We formed a partnership with L.A. nightlife impresario Cedd Moses, which allowed us to develop three new bars from the ground up: the downtown cocktail bar and dance club Honeycut, and a pair of bars inside the Normandie Hotel in Koreatown: a lively lounge called the Normandie Club, and an ambitious, omakase-inspired cocktail den called the Walker Inn.

Bar media is a great tool to learn all about bartending. They teach you about cocktails, mixology, and all things bartending. Reading can help you build a solid foundation for your bartending skills.
However, reading something can only take you so far. It's important to know the best learning method so you can become an effective and efficient bartender.
Various Ways to Become a Bartender
1. Bartending School
Administrations like these usually hand out a certificate or license after you pass the course. Both documents are valid and are used in the industry. It usually takes 2-3 weeks to get certified, but you can also take college courses on hotel and restaurant management to further your business skills and knowledge.
2. Work as a Barback
If you do not have the financial means to enroll in a bartending school, you can always learn the ropes as a barback. A barback's job is to lift, clean, restock and be a bartender's assistant. You can learn from the current bartender by observing and watching them closely.
3. Work at a Restaurant
If you already have experience as a server but want to work at a bar, getting a restaurant job can help you further along with your goal. Restaurants usually hire people who are flexible and are willing to learn.
You'll find that working in a restaurant requires teamwork. Someone with bartending experience can teach you, and this will come in handy when you need to be stationed at the bar area during busy nights.
4. Mentorship
Making connections is essential; you must be willing to make friends to get further in your plans. You can learn a lot from an experienced bartender, so try to be friendly and ask if they're willing to teach you the ways of mixology.
