DOWNTOWN ON 2ND Wednesdays it¹s ESMERALDA¹S TANGO AND PIEROGI The East Village Ukrainian Restaurant 140 2nd Ave, bet 8th St. (St. Mark¹s Pl) and 9th St.
Dance 8:30 to 12:00 Lexa, Abbie, and I will be taking off for the High Holiday of Yom Kippur so tanguera Ingrid Kasper will greet you at the door, and Gayatri- La Boca/Celebratetango.com/Tango Tours with a Twist- Martin will do the honorsof teaching and D.J.ing this night! (She D.J.ed for us last night at Esmeralda's Uptown and her program was a big successand my guests are picky, picky.) Beginner class at 6:30, Intermediate at 7:30 $10 w/class included. A great floor, plus friendly people, fine new sound system. VERY IMPORTANT! WE CAN HOLD ONTO THIS PLACE (WHICH IS SAFE FOR DANCING*) IF WE EAT THEIR CHEAP, GOOD, FOOD AND DRINK THEIR CHEAP, GOOD, WINE AND BEERS. Gayatri will not also be doing the cooking. *Many places do not want dancers because not only do we not drink/eat a lot, but also because of the draconian "cabaret" laws in NYC--but as this is a private Ukrainian club it is exempt. It's also surrounded by businesses so we have no angry neighbors calling the police. Hope you can come. Lucille (212 777 6053) PS SALSA begins tonightuptown at Session 73, Mambo Mondays! PPS Tons of public transportation. Parking is much better Wed. than on the weekends when everyone from the tri-state seems to be in the East Village. Can park from 6:00 on my street, 10th between A and B, other streets after 7:00 on cross-town, and Avenues.
