Hidden in La Placita, lies Santaella, Puerto Rico’s premier dining establishment with a menu headed by world-renowned chef José Santaella. Yes, the menu is phenomenal (do try it) but I suggest visiting Santaella for the cocktails. Sit at the bar and bump elbows with actors, artists and the who’s who of Puerto Rican society. Do you fancy rum, vodka, whiskey, tequila or any other spirit? Order from their carefully crafted menu or chat with the bartender for a custom-made cocktail. Lavender, bitters, elderflower liqueur and more could be added to your beverage. One of my favorites is the Perfect Lady. Salud!
