When we noticed that this year's Gambit "Bar Guide" issue wisely refrained from ranking the bars according to some nebulous arbitrary criteria the way they sometimes do, we were relieved that we were not obligated to produce a handy key to those rankings the way we did last year.
Better still, this year's simplified bar guide comes to us in the form of a mind-blowing flowchart created by Ian Hoch. It is designed to help locals or visitors reach the appropriate watering hole using a decision-based approach. And I gotta say it works pretty darn well. Even if it doesn't get you exactly where you expect (there is no way to get to Igor's or Fahy's) it will get you somewhere similar or perhaps nearby. Would have been a great thing to hand out to Menckles' friends and family when they came in for the wedding.
