Coming soon to Park Lane is Bailey's Prime Plus, a steakhouse whose new site will be its second location in the area. But I'm not so much excited about the cuisine as I am the cocktails ...
The restaurant will feature a cozy, red-accented bar/lounge "with curved banquette seating and subdued lighting, with space for live music performers ... or a DJ spinning." In fact, the lounge plans to have two rotating house DJs. And a mixologist and sommelier will be on-site, so I expect fantastic bevs of the vino and spirit variety. For now, the cocktail menu includes a peach rickey, strawberry basil mojito and a Coco Chanel -- vanilla vodka, white Godiva, coco real and Hershey's syrup. I have to see if it tastes as ooh-la-la as it sounds.
The cherry on top of the sundae of this news is that the new bar will be right smack in my neighborhood -- at last, we'll have a bar to chill at other than Sherlock's! Nothing wrong with Sherlock's, but it'll be nice to have some variety ...
