healer

Located in the former home of Panchita, Mexico's famous witch and healer, the bar is housed in the lower level of a building dubbed “Casa de Brujas,” house of witches.

Leal’s contribution to the menu is a strawberry twist on the French 75 inspired by Marie Laveau, a voodoo herbalist and healer from New Orleans.

Quickly, a second Cantonese-speaking stranger appeared, claiming she knew the healer, and offering to take them to him.

On a quieter side street, a third woman joined the group, claiming to be related to the healer and went to see if he could help.

The woman told Mungnee the healer could bestow a blessing that would protect her adult son.
