CNN's Eatocracy asked cocktail pro Jim Meehan to share his 10 favorite new bars of the year. Among the list of hot new bars, including San Francisco's Trick Dog and Three Dots and a Dash in Chicago, is San Diego-own Polite Provisions. Meehan highlights the bar's resident drinks expert, Erick Castro, and its Monday through Thursday (3 to 6 p.m.) happy hour. [Eatocracy]
