JASON KOSMAS and DUSHAN ZARIC first became a team at Soho’s Pravda, where they were at the forefront of the Martini craze that swept the late 1990s. They opened Employees Only along with three other owners in 2004. Together the two have also formed Cocktail Conceptions, a beverage consulting company, and have created brand launches and marketing strategies for major labels such as Absolut, Pernod Ricard, and Perrier-Jouët Champagne. Their latest bar-restaurant venture is Macao Trading Co. in Tribeca.
