CHŌ Funky Asian Bistro, at 1209 17th Street on Miami Beach, launched a daily happy hour on Thursday, Nov. 5. The restaurant also now opens its doors at 5 p.m., an hour earlier than before, when dinner service begins.
The happy hour runs every day from 5 to 6:30 p.m. and is offered only at the bar. Signature cocktails are $12, and so is wine by the glass. Drinks on the list include the Easy Tiger!, a mix of vodka, shochu, pandan, Calpico and hibiscus, and the Night Market, a riff on an espresso martini made with Nikka Coffee whiskey and Vietnamese coffee.
Food is priced from $10 to $14 and is available only during happy hour. Options include a Bulgogi Bao Burger, Mala Fries, chicken wings tossed in sambal and tamarind, chicken fried rice with bacon and furikake, and Crab Rangoon with lump crab.
The restaurant is owned by Mohamed “Mo” Alkassar, who operates MO Momentum Group. Dinner is served Sundays through Thursdays from 5 to 10 p.m., and Fridays and Saturdays until 11 p.m. Reservations and more information are available at choasianbistro.com.
