The dissidence, though pleasurable, couldn't be more extreme here, sipping rum-based cocktails on an astroturfed 3rd floor directly across the street from the oldest still-standing cathedral in the Western hemisphere. Cocktails are strong and pricier than elsewhere (from RD$300), but worth it, especially if you grab one of the rum barrel tables overlooking the street; small tapas such as ceviche are around RD$350.
