Travel might be expensive nowadays, what with the price of gas. But if there’s a waiting at the end, it can take away some of the sting.
This month, Food & Wine released its annual for its favorite restaurants, hotels, airports and other travel-related staples. Included are the best bars in the U.S. and the world, chosen by more than 400 food and and vetted by the magazine’s mysterious Global Advisory Board.
These are not your ordinary watering holes. Expect to try tipples like a frozen piña colada with whole coffee beans and a PX sherry float. Or, a martini made from banana and blue cheese, or shots of Angostura bitters straight from the tap. The rankings also took into account bar food, from vegan-cauliflower nachos to lobster rolls and celery confit.
