Origin, the new bar down ECR did'nt get that name by accident. The 'gin' in the name is a clear nod to the comeback of the spirit that had in the past slipped down to a brunch option. Now back in trend with tonics and whatnots, the watering hole at Green Meadows has caught the movement and stocked their menu with an exciting range of martinis, negronis and other refreshing signature cocktails. Here, we shine the spotlight on six of our favourite concoctions:
