Los Angeles
Paper Tiger Bar
Paper Tiger Bar is on Beverly Boulevard in Koreatown and leans Victorian in its design with dark furnishings and detailed decor that makes the space feel more carefully built than a typical neighborhood bar. The cocktail menu highlights include a coconut-infused bourbon Old Fashioned and a Tomato Water Martini with Absolut Peppar and fresh muddled tomatoes. The kitchen through the adjacent Blossom puts out Korean-inflected bar food including fried chicken sliders, garlic wings, and gourmet corndogs. DJs play Thursday through Saturday nights and the upstairs seating area has a more relaxed feel than the bar floor. Hours are limited to Thursday through Saturday, 9pm to 2am.
