"A self-styled “no-phones bar” from Rock Harper nods to the clandestine forest gatherings of enslaved Africans and serves Southern-leaning plates like shrimp in a Creole remoulade, Cajun red beans and rice with smoked turkey, and buttermilk biscuits layered with prosciutto, green tomato jam, and candied pecans. Classic cocktails get playful tweaks, as seen in an Old Fashioned made with mole bitters and a mezcal margarita featuring Italian Cappelletti aperitivo." - Tierney Plumb
