Last week, Paul spent the week at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans—one of the hospitality industry’s biggest gatherings, bringing together bartenders, beverage directors, brand ambassadors, distillers, and hospitality professionals from around the world.

Instead of chasing trends, he leaned into the science.

From enzymes and texture to flavor chemistry, distillation, and the role of ingredients in how we experience a cocktail, he packed his schedule with seminars focused on the why behind great drinks.

We believe the best cocktails start with curiosity. Investing in education like this helps us keep learning, refining, and bringing new ideas back to the bar.

Here’s a look at what had his attention last week. 🥃

Meet Claire. 🍹

If you’ve been loving our Tiki Week cocktails, you have her to thank.

Claire is one of the talented bartenders behind the bar at Zuzul, but this week she’s also the creative force behind the entire cocktail menu. A longtime lover of tiki culture and tropical cocktails, she curated each drink with intention—bringing together bold flavors, classic inspiration, and a little bit of fun in every glass.

If you stop by this week, be sure to say hi and let Claire make one of her favorites. We think you’ll taste her passion in every sip. 🌺🌴

The hardest part of Tiki Week?

Choosing just one.

Four tropical cocktails. Tiki-inspired tapas. And just enough island vibes to make you forget it’s the middle of the week.

Which one’s calling your name? 🍍🍹

Celebrate with us until 7/25!

Chef Gabe has been working to help restore the Louisiana Boardwalk carousel, and we couldn’t be prouder to see him helping preserve a place that’s meant so much to our community.

If you know him, you know how much family means to him. He believes our community should have places where kids can just be kids and families can make memories together. That’s what makes this project so personal.

Check out the story. 🎠

By dry-aging yellowfin tuna, we give the fish time to develop a richer taste and an incredibly delicate texture, transforming an already exceptional ingredient into something truly memorable.

Thoughtful technique. Sustainable sourcing. Unforgettable flavor.

Chef Gabriel Balderas follows curiosity.

Whether it’s discovering new techniques, championing clean, sustainably sourced ingredients, exploring the depth of regional Mexican cuisine, or refining a dish until every element is exactly where it should be, his passion lies in pushing flavors forward while honoring where they come from.

At Zuzul, that curiosity isn’t a trend - it’s the foundation of everything we do.
