Happy Hour, Mister President

Quand les Washingtoniens font la fete, ca se passe dans l'ancienne maison de Theodore Roosevelt - a present convertie en "Eighteen Street Lounge". Il faudrait quand meme pas trop s'eloigner de la politique, au risque d'etre bannis du District.

La critique du Washington Post:
"Teddy Roosevelt once lived in this magnificent historic mansion on 18th Street, part of the coveted Dupont Circle district. These days it's an ultra-classy lounge-club that's so chic it doesn't advertise and hardly has it's name above the door. Regulars are big-name politicos, celebrity locals and upscale out-of-towners who continue the high-brow standards set by the former Prez. Known as ESL, bouncers stand guard outside and it's best to leave your jeans and trainers at home if you want a sniff at getting in. Spread over two floors with a stairwell between, gorgeous girls in Prada, Dolce and Versace lie back on couches sipping negronis, watching dashing men in Armani smoke imported cigars over iced bourbon. DJs spin hot urban tunes, those with the urge to boogie take to the dance floor and the general Sex and the City-meets-West Wing vibe sends out a rather powerful and seductive energy."

Ce fut fort sympathique, mais si c'est ca qu'ils appellent "ultra classy/so chic", je me fais un peu de souci pour les autres clubs.

N.B. Conseil aux filles: ne sortez pas votre iPhone en soiree ou 30 mecs croiront avoir gagne un ticket en s'ecriant "Is that an iPhone??"
