Santiago Vargas

Travel & Drinks Correspondent

Santiago Vargas lives out of a suitcase, and he wouldn't have it any other way. After a decade behind the bar at some of the world's top cocktail lounges, he set out to document the drinks and dishes that define a place. His reporting is immersive and adventurous, focusing on the people who make local food culture thrive. Santiago's work has been featured in 'Condé Nast Traveler' and 'Saveur,' and his 'City in 12 Bites' video series has a dedicated following. He believes the best meals are often found on a plastic stool on a busy sidewalk.
