Where To Eat Before Going ‘Out Out’ - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"You’re finally getting your work friends and your “real friends” together for a night out. And since everyone doesn’t know each other, you don’t want anyone to feel left out. Tell everyone to meet at China Live. This place feels more like an over-the-top Vegas food court than a restaurant, but the extra noise can help the new people get comfortable and break the ice sooner. Plus, a lot of the food is served family style, and there’s no better way to start a conversation than, “Hey, could you please pass the blistered green beans?” If there’s a wait, head upstairs to Cold Drinks, their “hidden” bar, in the meantime." - Will Kamensky
