This touches the tastiest parts of every coast: sausages and bean casseroles from Spain, eggplants and beets from Italy, bouillabaisse and mussels from France and the lamb tagine across the sea. Smart drinking, friendly bar plus a weekend brunch that features a Build Your Own Bloody Mary bar.

The bar scene: A well-reputed destination that recalls hip hot spots in Europe, Cafe Alma transforms from restaurant to night club, with stellar cocktails and late-night eats (kitchen open 'til 1 a.m.). Both the daytime and night-time scenes convey a Euro-coastal vibe. Inside, the earthy elegance of Cafe Alma's brick archways, dim lighting and rustic decor provide a soothing and sophisticated backdrop. Midweek specials (all night long happy hour on Wednesdays) attract a mix of young hip folks and middle-aged professionals. Friday and Saturday nights feature DJs spinning everything from funk and soul to electro pop and euro groove.
