Drinks at Sunset
Saved from developers by protests from its loyal clientele (including presidents and poets), this incredibly atmospheric drinking den is often improbably packed and noisy. You'll feel the earth move with the terremoto (earthquake), a potent mix of wine and ice cream; the chicha (Chilean cider) also comes highly recommended. Troubadours are usually on hand, plucking their guitars to traditional folk tunes.

Astrid y Gaston
Astrid y Gastón The seasonally changing menu of Peruvian haute cuisine has made this one of Santiago's most critically acclaimed restaurants. The warm but expert waitstaff happily talk you through the chef's subtle, modern take on traditional ceviches, chupes (fish stews) and chochinillo (suckling pig), all beautifully presented. The barman deserves an ovation for his complex cocktails: Peruvian pisco comes with physalis juice in the Aquaymanto, for example.
