It’s like having a small personal trip to Hamburg and actually being in the bar. Amazing video!
Also, I think I do now know that Le Bon Lion started in 2006 after Mr. Meyer mentioned this “a couple” of times
I do wonder where the founding team of Le Lion got that adorable lion statue from and wether finding it played a major role in designing the new bar. Also, I bet that certain people would be very irritated with Mr. Meyer rubbing the barspoon in his forehand and then stirring with it again, haha. The nervousness?
Also, would I actually knock my head at the ceiling in Le Bon Lion with my 1,96 meters? It looks very low!
Thanks for this delightful filmlet! And congratulations for your 2 years of existence.
