Where To Drink With Your Out-Of-Town Friends In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Another mid-April snowstorm has crushed your New York friend’s soul into oblivion, and they’re on a last-minute flight to LA before any more emotional damage occurs. Your gut’s saying you probably shouldn’t take them to a bar that’s been in NYC for a decade, but when that bar is Apotheke, ignore your gut. The Chinatown cocktail bar has a heavy 19th-century apothecary aesthetic, but the drinks are so good, we don’t care that it’s a little much. Also, that back patio is fantastic and your friends’ best bet at emotional repair." - brant cox, brett keating
