China World Hotel opened Ice Bar a few weeks ago, just outside Aria. As reported earlier, the bar is, not surprisingly, made of ice and is cosponsored by Moet-Hennessy Diageo, so expect Moet Chandon Champagne, Belvedere Vodka and Grand Marnier. The bar itself is modest and fun for a quick drink. And the Champagne is definitely chilled. The only weird thing is the deafening hip hop – something a bit more relaxed would work better. For some reason, ABBA pops into my mind…
