Honey Cocktails at Heaven’s Dog

Charles Phan’s Slanted Door is one of my favorite San Francisco restaurants–despite the fact one has to plan way too far ahead to land a reservation.  We decided instead to check out his newest venture, Heaven’s Dog, which has garnered raves for their Chinese-inspired menu and their vintage-y cocktails.

We discovered many intriguing cocktails on their list, some with local honey—like the rum-based Bumblebee with honey and egg white, and the Cap Haitian Rum & Honey, a smooth concoction of 15 year Barbancourt Rhum and honey over a hand-cut, height-of-cool ice cube.  The mixologists are working it old school here, to great success.

Did I mention the dumplings?
