Place to eat: AsiaSF, San Francisco, California, United States

About this place:

Not for the faint of heart, AsiaSF is located in a sketchy part of the city -- so you'll probably want to arrive and depart by cab. The great food and entertainment are worth the trouble, however. Gender illusionists vogue along the bar to the music of Tina Turner and Madonna as diners dig into miso-glazed salmon and black "forbidden rice" or Asia-dillas stuffed with smoked duck and topped with cherry crème fraiche
