Although the website is shut, from time to time it will be open in fact, but, roughly speaking, it's shut day to day. That doesn't mean we aren't selling. Just drop me a line on +61413140944 and I will show you what we are up to. Otherwise, follow us on Instagram www.instagram.com/lenoeudpapillon
This is Nathan Colkitt. He has become on our customers over the past twelve months having heard about us through Steven Knorsch, aka The Snob Report. I received recently a wonderful photo taken of Nathan by his wife and he was just showing me how he was wearing our bow ties right now. It has always been a privilege to see what our customers come up with because I have my own aesthetic but it is often limited by my weight, the colour of my skin and what I am willing to give a go and what I set aside. I have not worn a pin stripe since the mid 1990's so I was so happy to see Nathan pull this ensemble off. It strikes me as odd from the outset. If someone said to me "what about a pin striped suit with a bengal striped shirt with a white collar and cuffs and a polka dot bow tie" I would probably reply - NO.
So, I take my hat off to you Mr. Colkitt. Because this is an exceptionally refined look and I am going to give it a go myself in the near future. Well, I will investigate it. I am not entirely sure pin stripes will work for, but nothing ventured nothing gained.
During the pandemic it has been difficult for us to always keep to our promise but mostly we have been able to fulfill all requests within the time allocated. For us, we are always happy to serve you day and night, and we can usually cut-make-trim-package your bow tie up within 24 ours and have it to you anywhere in the world within another 72. Just whatsapp +61413140994
We just finished a batch of ties, some are 9cm, some 8.5cm, each one individually cut and made so that you are never to feel same same but different. You are one of a kind. Which is pretty cool given there are 7.4 billion people on this planet. www.lenoeudpapillon.com
It is rare that I go out. I have my work cut out for me. A business that I need to survive this pandemic, another business I am working on, my exercise regime, the fact that my doctor has said that my sessions of drinking have done their damage to my internal OS over time, my obligations to my friends, the time I spend with my daughter and so on and such like.
So, drinking at home, although a vary rare occurrence, coupled with the fact that I am lazy when it comes to what little time I spend at home, means that when I drink I have a bottle of white and red in the fridge (I like my reds chilled and then let them sit for a bit).
So I jumped at the chance to try these Maybe Sammy cocktails. I had been to their bar in the city and to be fair, it was cool but I didn't feel like it would become 'my bar'. My bar is Charlie Parker's right now, it has been for four years now. It was designed by Bettina Hemmes, whom I believe is the unsung hero of Merivale and she cares not for publicity or notoriety at all. Which is why I like her more than her brother, not that he's ever done me wrong, I just find him to be a prickly sort of character. Although in saying that, let me be clear from the outset that he deserves some sort of AC, AM or OAM - I am not entirely sure which category he would sit in. That's because his contribution to the landscape of Australian hospitality is wide and varied and I cannot fault his systems or the quality of the products he delivers across Sydney. There was life before Merivale, but it was limited. Merivale has definitely changed the landscape for the better.
Anyway, I received these samples from a friend of the owner's of Maybe Sammy. I wasn't asked to write anything it was just a gift from a friend but having tried their Jasmine Negroni and Chamomile Martini, let me say I am sold and I intend to up my game at home the next time I have a guest over. It was exceptional stuff and I intend to purchase a batch shortly, especially before my next poker match.
Well done Maybe Sammy, the names of the bottles are self explanatory and the quality is high. I think you have a great product and I wish you the best of luck moving forward.
