"This hip, late-night Hong Kong kitchen in Blagden Alley, led by Chang Chang alum Simon Lam, is known for its eggplant mapo tofu, peanut dan dan noodles, and rotating weekly specials. Saddle up to its hexagon-shaped bar for cocktails from beverage director Ian Fletcher, who’s known to mix in Chinese medicinal ingredients. Reserve a seat online or place takeout or delivery orders daily." - Tierney Plumb


"Tiger Fork feels secreted away. Indeed, its location off the main road makes finding it a challenge, but arrive and discover a sultry Hong Kong-style den. Inside, find brick walls emblazoned with dragons and mountains, Chinese basket-style lanterns, and warehouse floors that show off a sexy, hip look. Then get to sipping on one of their many glorious potions, such as the Bird Market, a chartreuse blended with elderflower, bai zhu and bergamot.Some plates may miss the mark but dishes like the slightly sweet cheung fun and spicy chili wontons are spot on. Glossy, thick pork ribs are brushed with a soy and ginger sauce for umami glory. Crack open that fortune cookie but don’t expect Confucius since you’re more likely to get words of wisdom from Gucci Mane." - Michelin Inspector

"Every day is happy hour until 6 p.m. at this Hong Kong-themed spot’s octagon bar in Blagden Alley. Discounted drinks like baijiu shots and lychee cocktails are $7-$12 and food items range from $8 smashed cucumber salad to $14 chili wontons." - Missy Frederick

"This sleek addition to Blagden Alley specializes in noodle dishes, Asian barbecue, and Hong Kong-style street food. It also has a late night menu featuring DC Brau beer specials. The alley is also home to sibling bar Calico, an indoor-outdoor happy hour hideaway for fried eggplant and hoagies (look for a tall wooden fence with mural of painted carrots). Go for: A sit-down dinner, drinks Distance from CC: 0.2 miles" - Tim Ebner


"Blagden Alley’s Hong Kong-themed staple recently debuted daily happy hour at its octagonal bar, featuring bar-exclusive dishes, discounted baijiu, cocktails, sake, and beer from opening until 6 p.m. Guests can now enjoy $8 Baijiu shots (with pickleback add-ons), $7 tallboy beers, $10 peach jelly sake, and $12 rotating cocktails.
