"That friend who always knows the trendiest spots will find any excuse to celebrate something—anything—at Cala. There’s a party brunch atmosphere with matcha sours and flaming saganaki that will torch any eyebrows that get too close. But it’s also one of the best things on the menu, so it’s worth the fire hazard. Waiters deliver sparkler-topped drinks like rush hour traffic while DJ sets thump in the background on the open-air misted patio. After enjoying the Mediterranean mezze platter and a couple of cucumber vodka cocktails, you’ll have the courage to play tipsy Marco Polo at the Senna House rooftop pool." - Lauren Topor
