He is probably one of the most knowledgeable bartenders ever. He speaks multiple languages that he can write and read fluently. "Every morning when I wake up, I read newspapers from France, England, Germany and the United States so that if one of my customers wants to discuss current events or the stock market, I know what I'm talking about." says Colin about his daily ritual. "Some people like to talk with a bartender," he says. "Some don't. My job here is to be the host, the showman, the life of the party." He takes his job very, very seriously. He can concoct a perfect cocktail to match your mood, your taste, or even your outfit. He often garnishes cocktails for his lady patrons with roses and orchids. Nice!
