"Blind Pig moved from their old Chinatown location to a dark, inconspicuous space in Lower Nob Hill, complete with windows wrapped in Hi-Chew wallpaper to block passerby from peeking in. There are limited seats and no reservations, so line up and wait your turn to give the rotating password (pinned on their Instagram every week) and gain access to smooth cocktails spiked with mostly Chinese ingredients, like mapo tofu or pineapple bun cordial. Most of the drinks are served in adorable pig-themed glasses that are practically begging to have their picture taken (ideal when you want to post a photo to prove you left the house on a Friday night)." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong, ricky rodriguez
