10 Top International Bars

"A petite Art Nouveau–inspired two-story spot in the Marais that centers on vintage vermouths, liqueurs, and artisanal spirits. The street-level room is light and bright with a compact U-shaped bar and mirrored ceiling, where guests often receive elegant, classically minded Martinis made with artisanal bottles; the downstairs is dark and intimate and uses modern equipment (centrifuges, fat-washing, housemade cordials) to create more elaborate, experimental variations of the same drinks. The split personality—refined simplicity above and theatrical technique below—makes visiting both levels a distinct experience." - Kara Newman
