Forging Your Own Path Through Perseverance
This weeks guest is Beckaly Franks, who joins us from Hong Kong.
Originally born in Hawaii, but raised in Idaho, Beckaly moved to Hong Kong in 2015. Beckaly co-founded The Pontiac, which has been featured on the list of Asia’s 50 Best Bars for 7 years and is credited with pushing for female empowerment and creating an inclusive space where everyone is welcome. More recently, Beckaly founded Hungry Ghost with her wife and opened venues Call Me AL and Artifact Bar.
Beckaly is a born leader and the legion of acolytes who have received her mentorship, sampled her drinks or, simply, spent an evening in her consuming, intoxicating presence, will agree that she is well deserving of the Altos Bartenders’ Bartender Award for Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2023.
