We review restaurants because they are reviewable. How can you review a bar -- a screwdriver is a screwdriver is a screwdriver, right? Well, maybe not, but the evaluation of a bar is so subjective. Some like wild dancing, others somber meditation, or spirited entertainment, or thoughtful conversation, or plain cruising, or fetish displays, or sexy bartenders. And much depends on who else is there. Yeah, that's it. Do you go there for the screwdriver, or the joy, or the guys? Honest now: Should we review the guys ... here???
| Updated 4/2/06 |
Guess not. So we won't voice our opinion. We'll give you the essentials about the bar and some hints about its specialties (more details from the bars are appreciated) and a couple of pictures. And also the telephone number, so you can call ahead and ask if Mr RightForYou is there RightNow.
Some of the bars may not look too joyous from the outside, but open the door and you will find that it's really nice inside. And it's dark anyway at night, so how the bar looks to the passers-by doesn't really matter, does it?
