"A highly anticipated late‑night dessert and cocktail bar in Poncey‑Highland, this venture from James Beard Award–nominated pastry chef Claudia Martinez and co‑owner Artie De Los Santos takes over the former El Bar space below El Ponce; by day, the room is Recuerdos, a specialty coffee bar by Ivan Solis. At night, Martinez’s famous desserts take the cake—think apple spice cake, guava‑glazed doughnuts, and shortbread tarts with pear sorbet and caramel popcorn—paired with creative cocktails and small savory plates like mushroom tart and charcuterie." - Henna Bakshi
