Honey Cocktails at Heaven’s Dog
July 23, 2009

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?
