What do you think of
when you think of New Orleans? No, not predictably horrible football
teams. No, not a giant plot by the Cubans, the mob, Texas oilmen and
the CIA to assassinate President Kennedy. You think of partying! Well,
that's the idea here. Actually, there's really not anything Marti
Grasish about this joint. It's more like Down
the Hatch uptown, complete with red Christmas lights, lots of
domestic light beer and a clientele that thinks the Star Wars
series started with Episode 1. That's not to say there isn't a party
atmosphere in this typical UWS teen scene boozathon that would seem
much more at home on the UES circa 1995. Quite to the contrary, those
who miss the hoopla of the Ski
Bar and Zoo Bar can relive their early twenties with all the kiddies,
as they stride up to the bar to order a giant Mai-Tai or Blue Lady
(cuz those are what the "adults" drink, right?) [MF] |
