La Esquina has shitty pipes…
…and it’s ruining our Friday night.
We are sad to be the bearers of this news but the main water pipe apparently burst last night at one of our favorite joints, La Esquina on Kenmore St. At first we thought that they had just overbooked and were about ready to call their bluff on the matter, until we double-checked with our insider there who assures us their pipes are a leakin’. This means they are closed all weekend, possibly longer. We have some mates fresh off the plane from Sydney that we were pretty excited about taking there tonight and now we’re at a loss. Our go-to place is closed and we need to make sure these guys know that Manhattan is hip. Please email us some suggestions. Bonus for exclusive basements, secret entrances, or outdoor hideaways. Yeah we like shit like that and we’re not too cool to admit to it.

Leaky pipes has in fact been an age old excuse from getting busted by cabaret cops to having blood stains on the floor that just won’t come out - I was told that when I started in the business 15 years ago, and that was from a guy in the business 40 years. Not that creative, but hey, it’s a tradition. Guess I’ll see you at the Back Room on Norfolk.
freemans? guest of a guest, you crack me up…. the owner of freemans is an absolute sweetheart and all his bartenders actually come from milk and honey. if you do go to freemans, look for me at the bar– i’m the only one drinking a ginfizz.
we’ll be there. probably waitingfor a table at that very bar…
