Go there Saturday nights — 2 years ago
Food was okay, I had some kind of pizza and you can’t really screw that up. Maybe the more dinner-y items are better, I dunno. What I really came back for is burlesque on Saturday nights. Pah-Ooh-La the Swedish Housewife, Miss Indigo Blue, Tamara the Trapeze Lady and a host of friends put on a very authentic throwback to the best days of the fallen art. The stage is so tiny that the crowd sits practically on the performers, with some bar seats being on eye level two feet away from the dancers. The audience usually has a few personal friends in it who set the tone in howling in appreciation and really help fill in the atmosphere. A few drinks, some good bump’n’grind and a woman in pasties flying overhead on a trapeze swing. What more do you need?
