With the help of the Eater 38 and the Eater Heat Map, it's a breeze to find out where to eat right now, whether it's a hot newcomer or an old neighborhood standby. Starting right this second, it's going to be just as easy to find out where to get a good, stiff drink in this town.

Introducing Eater's Cocktail Heat Map, a frequently updated guide to the hot bars of the moment. Rather than feature the perennial favorites—we will assume the readership already knows how to get their PDT and Little Branch on—this guide focuses on operations that have opened in the last year or two or recently underwent a revamp. Happy drinking, and as always, feel free to write in with new suggestions.
