The best Bars

It May Have Been a While Since You Put on a Pair of "nice pants" to go to a bar, but when that very 2022 confluence of joie de vivre and pandemic ennui begins to stir and you hear about a new piano bar with red booths or a semisecret room with Kubrick-level design details or a place that has the best damn Sazerac in the world, you put one leg in after the other and you order yourself a Lyft.

The Follower

When he was nineteen, Jeff Gross fell under the sway of the charismatic, fifty-one-year-old Mildred Gordon. She offered him guidance on life, spiritual fulfillment, and sex. With a handful of others, they started Ganas, an "intentional community" on Staten Island. The world's leading cult deprogrammer calls it something else. Jeff spent more than half his life under Mildred's spell. Today he lives in hiding. For the first time, Jeff tells his extraordinary story about life inside Ganas and how he ultimately escaped.

Alex Honnold – How We Dad Now

Dads have made damn good progress. We're more involved than ever; we understand the assignment. But let's not pat ourselves on the back. Certainly not as we claw our way out of a pandemic that's altered everything about the way we live our lives. It's high time to ask the knotty questions about raising kids, the ones you've only dared to ponder with your partner or your closest friends, or even just yourself. Because let's be honest, parenting is as terrifying as it is joyful, and sometimes you worry so much that you might just pee your pants. So we did just that. (Posed the questions, not peed ourselves-yet.) The answers we received, on the pages that follow, will teach you a thing or two-the good, the bad, the meconium-tinged ugly-about what it means to be a caring, supportive, badass dad today.

On the move

A generation or so ago, ACTORS AND ROCK STARS knew how to dress when they got out of town. Looking around, we see it's a lost art. Here, BENJAMIN BRATT, star of HBO Max's new limited series DMZ, revives that spirit and shows how to look sharp for a quick getaway. And he talks to ESQUIRE about work, family, and Roberta Flack.

Finally, well done

The medium-rare New York strip. The ice-cold martini. The tableside Caesar. For ages, THE STEAKHOUSE and its trappings signified success and a damn good time... even if the food and service could be hit-or-miss. But now, thanks to a handful of splashy, CHEF-DRIVEN RESTAURANTS from New York to Chicago to San Francisco, the party has reached a new golden age. Here are the fresh temples of beef worth traveling for.
