Or, hell, hop on the next flight to New Orleans. It is time for the Big Night Out.
Drinking culture over the past two-plus years has morphed from negronis hastily made on your kitchen counter to cocktails on the go to cautiously rediscovering what it's like to sit at a bar to where we are now going out with a sense of epicness. Wasn't this supposed to happen last year, post vax? you might ask. It didn't. Things went sideways. But we are happy to report, as per our last bar tab, which included a seafood tower and many martinis: The people want to party.
You'll see proof of it in many of the new bars on this year's list. They're just a little more special. You don't go there for the 'Gram. You may see someone in a white tux. You don't just pop in for a drink after work. You go to feel like it's your birthday even though it's just a Tuesday.
Can you still simply get a drink in peace after a hard day? Yes. Always. We have bars for that purpose on this list, too. But should you find yourself eyeing those nice pants? Wear them. Text a friend or three. And go.

what i've learned
I TAKE THINGS in stride. Maybe a lot of it is maturity. When I was a lot younger, in my late twenties, I was a tyrant.
the book of denzed
He has lived a big life. Tough streets, close calls, a wife of forty-one years, four kids, fifty movies, two Oscars, three Equalizers...all by the grace of God. For the first time on the occasion of Gladiator II, one of the biggest films of his epic career, and his approaching seventieth birthday the man himself breaks it all down, in his own words, to the moments that mattered and the experiences that made him. He has lived a big life, but Denzel Washington ain't done yet.
