"Church and State, Arts District. As soon as you sit down, don't hesitate to order the Absinthe. It's a spectacle, if you're ready for it: a full tap of purified water drips down to your glass, saturating the sugar cube that's perch perilously on a sugar spoon. Church and State is both extremely fancy (anniversary date-night caliber) while being effortlessly casual. You can almost imagine yourself in Paris as you dig into your escargot or lavender-honey goat cheese toasts. Don't forget to ask your server for their opinion— they know their changing menu well."
