  1. Candelaria

    Mexican

    The bar is behind a door at the back of a taqueria on Rue de Saintonge, which is the kind of entrance that never gets old. Once through, it's a candle-lit, intentionally scuffed cocktail bar where the soundtrack runs loud enough that you're not whispering like you're supposed to. Perch at the bar to watch the bartenders work, or sink into a couch if someone hasn't beaten you to it. The Pinnacle Guide awarded it one Pin.

    Two honors, in evidence:

    The record strongest first

    One number, weighted & current 67

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. It runs on the scored places nearby: more good stuff within reach, higher score. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
