Sweet sipping at Sampan’s happy hour

The atmosphere: As sleek as this 13th Street restaurant is with its color-shifting walls, the bar is surprisingly intimate and cozy.

The drinks: A mere $4 will score you a house red wine, white wine, sake, featured beer or the night’s specialty cocktail (a Pomegranate Tequila Sunrise worth waking up for when we visited).

The eats: Small bites range from $2-$4 and give a tantalizing preview of the fresh and snappy modern Asian menu.

Don’t miss: Korean BBQ beef satay skewers, General Tso chicken soup dumplings and a Berkshire belly banh mi.
