Mai can be found deep in the alley, past Siif and towards the Second Ring Road, ground previously only trodden by busy locals and people lost on their way to the old Fish Nation.

This tiny cocktail courtyard bar might not hold many people, but their house infusions and large collection of whiskeys makes for a nice place to get cozy with a few friends. It's hard to find, but worth it when you get there.
