PONCE’S PLACITA
Bad Bunny is credited with kicking off the latest salsa craze with the hit song “Baile Inolvidable” that pays homage to the music of his native Puerto Rico. Riding that wave is a recurring salsa night at Ponce City Market. Every other Friday night, the first floor in the middle of the main food hall turns into a Latin town square with pulsating salsa music and dance. Hosted by the restaurants El Super Pan and La Metro, both owned by Puerto Rico native and Top Chef alum Hector Santiago, the event is a miniature version of “Bad Bunny Nights” at La Placita de Santurce in Puerto Rico where people gather at the popular town square to salsa dance, party, and socialize. The evening includes quick bites and cold drinks, in addition to free salsa lessons at 8 p.m. to kick things off.
