Los Gatos has a secret weapon: bartender Jorge Vargas Baquedano. Later this month he’ll compete in Diageo's “World Class” for the title of best U.S. bartender. In January, he was named runner up in Woodford Reserve’s “Manhattan Experience,” for which he created the “Final Indulgence.” This updated Manhattan contains traces of chocolate, cinnamon and fig, tasting like a booze-soaked Christmas cookie. Jack Rose’s menu is seasonal; expect them to play with hibiscus, strawberry, raspberry and basil this summer. Head over Fridays for live music and Sundays for their special “Sunday Rumday” menu.
