Chefs Grayson Schmitz (left) and Dale LevitskiJust about every notable local bartender will be away this weekend for the annual
Tales of the Cocktail down in New Orleans.
Of course you'll still be able to get a well-made cocktail around town (or maybe stick to drinking beer or wine!), but their absence leaves room for some other stars to shine behind the bar.
Specifically it's a couple of chefs you may have heard about:
Top Chef alums
Grayson Schmitz and
Dale Levitski, who will serve as special celebrity bartenders at the
Hotel Thrillist.
