Zapote, One of North America’s Best Bars, Comes Alive on Tuesday Nights - Eater

"Zapote, named on North America’s 50 Best Bars list two years running, is lauded for its serene environs, oversized lagoon-front suites, and its destination bar. Zapote hosts Tuesday night pop-up series featuring guest bartenders from Mexico and the U.S., coined Martes de Locales, meaning Local Tuesday. The bar's design is inspired by Riviera Maya's natural beauty, divided into indoor and outdoor seating areas touting private and communal tables, with a long bar as the area's main focus. The menu leans into Middle Eastern flavors with dishes like spiced beef and lamb kebab with tomatillo salsa, and hummus with chickpeas barbacoa. The night is characterized by lively music, live musicians, and a sensational lineup of guest bartenders." - Megha McSwain
