    The building looks like a face, the peaked roof a witch's hat, the windows two wide eyes staring down Colonia Roma. The cocktail bar inside leans into all of that, with an all-women team turning Mexico's native botanicals into drinks that feel less like cocktails and more like something brewed. The crowd tends toward the architecturally curious who then find a reason to stay for a second round.
