Hong Kong
Missy Ho's was once famed for its indoor swing that was unfurled from the ceiling after dinner service, but health-and-safety complaints eventually forced them to ditch it. Still, you get the picture: fun is high on the agenda at this K-Town restaurant-bar, stuffed with Hong Kong-inspired paraphernalia including bird cages. It's popular for lively weekend dinners; the menu is Asian fusion.
Happy hour 4pm to 7pm.
