Russian Hill, San Francisco ยท bar
A cocktail bar named after the outdoor street food stalls of Seoul: 'pocha' plus 'Polk.' All the drinks are originals built around Korean flavors and ingredients, from ube rum cocktails to gin-and-espresso combinations served with egg foam. Trivia Thursdays and a no-reservations policy keep the room moving.
