Dear Frying Pan: Your pitchers of Corona might be ridiculously expensive and your sangria is definitley watery and fruitless, but your fries and burgers are damn good and you sure do whip those things up fast! Plus, your staff is cute and scruffy. Thanks for helping us to throw my gal pal a bachelorette to remember...and thanks for enduring our abundance of hot pink leis, humongous balloons, and the cupcake mess we left behind.

This night club primary targets the Asian audience as it's decor are paper lanterns, Asian writing. Disappointedly there is no bamboo as it is embedded everywhere in the Asian lifestyle. There are gymnasts on cloth ropes in the middle of the dance floor. Lounge seats and small coffee tables surround the dance floor, which makes it small, as it is not completely open. Water is from the fountain/tap, which luckily is free to patrons. I came here on a Saturday night, which was absolute madness but not completely packed, as I was able to move about. The male patrons who attends Hiro are rather stupid yet persistant as they will dance randomly with women when they clearly see you dancing with a man already. There was a Caucasian man who did not fit in the scene of an Asian night club, who randomly bumped into me in order to purposely dance with him which I threw him a rude scowl of a look from head to toe. Afterwards, this Caucasian dude would not dare to come near me again seeing me happily dance with two women and one man. Definitely get your hands stamped as it allows you re-admittance later should you decide for fresh air. A Saturday night does not feel very Asian to me, as there are many non-Asian patrons. The music is very hip-hop, Reggae, R&B, and house mix, which entertains the audience all through the night without any dead spots. Disappointedly there is no Asian music to make it an authentic Asian night club. Entrance fee is a ridiculous $25.00 per person. Hiro Ballroom is a lot easier for admission especially for men as you will not be waiting an eternity of two long haul hours in the bitter cold.

2 words: Kill Bill Love the decorations, although the lion head above the stage is oddly the one Chinese thing in a Japanese themed room. Just got back from a live performance (Emily Haines) at this spot, and I liked the venue quite a bit. Good sound system, good layout - I got there early enough to find myself a seat, which eventually hurt my butt big time because it was wooden and completely straight-backed and the guy in front of me kept shifting his fathead so I had to shuffle left and right in my seat to avoid his head.. ending up making squeaky butt sounds as I shifted about my seat. But, I digress. Good venue for smaller live music acts. Not sure how it is for a dance club. Probably like everything else in this area..
