"The scenic Canal Saint-Martin neighborhood is stacked with bakeries and boutiques, making it an ideal spot to spend an afternoon. But return at night for Gravity Bar, and your reward will be an inventive cocktail in a lovely room with an open facade that looks out on a quiet block. The menu is robust, with drinks that are balanced and exciting. Take the Combattante: a savory Aquavit and stout cocktail that’s served foamy after being shaken with an egg white, served with a spoonful of ruby red tobiko on the side. On a recent visit, when the clock struck midnight, a server hopped on the bar to commemorate her birthday by pouring everyone shots, a delightfully raucous sight in the otherwise mellow and chic space." - ByThe Bon Appétit Staff & Contributors
