This is a classic spot for Friday or Saturday nights. In the famous Calle San Sebastian you can find great bars like La Taberna Lupulo, a bar with a large selection of local craft beers, and the renowned bar, La Factoría, where you will encounter live salsa music and local dj’s. This bar was featured as one of the World’s Top 50 bars by Forbes and is the setting for Luis Fonsi's "Despacito"! You can also venture to the Calle Tanca for music and drinks or go to one of the many rooftop bars in the area. A MUST VISIT is MARMALADE! At the helm of Marmalade is Chef Peter Schintler, an Iowa native who gained recognition in Singapore where he was nominated as Asia’s rising star Chef of the Year in 2003, as well as, Hotel Magazine and Villeroy & Boch naming his restaurant Blu, as one of the top ten best restaurants in the world that same year.
