The first time I went to Aviary in Chicago, we were served a cocktail in this beautiful vessel. Now it has a name, The Porthole, and it can be yours for a contribution to its Kickstarter project.

Martin Kastner of Crucial Detail designed The Porthole as well as a lot of the serving ware at Alinea which, like Aviary and Next Restaurant, are part of the Grant Achatz's elite Chicago dining portfolio. You can purchase some of that serving ware from Crucial Detail's web shop.
