This. Place. Is. AWESOME. So you walk in, right?, and it's got a small bar and some seating and it's kinda tiki hut kinda urban chic kinda Latin funk. If it's during happy hour, you can get a pina colada or a long island iced tea or a chocolate martini or like eight other choice drinks for like 5 bucks. Yeah, that's right. 5 dollars. So then you have a choice--downstairs or upstairs? Let's say you go upstairs, right? I'm not gonna lie--it's tiny. It's teeny tiny. There's seating around the perimeter. Perimeter of what? Well, there's the awesome part. Terazza Cafe has a stage that looks kind of like a pirate ship and it friggin floats out from the friggin wall. So what you thought was a ceiling above your head as you stood under the front door was really a stage that is not a ceiling. Nope, it's detached. There's a banister that goes around the whole thing and to get on and off the stage you need a lesson in rock climbing but that's the glory of it. The great thing about this place is that it supports local arts. It's small and cramped and when I was there in the zero degree winter chill the heat was pumped up so high that I wanted to strip down to my undies, but that's the kind of mood that makes art what it's supposed to be.

Front Page News is a huge space. It has two floors, including a nice outdoor patio. There was a live band on the second floor the Friday night we went and the youngish crowd was heavily concentrated there, dancing and drinking the night away. I just couldn't get over how reasonably priced the drinks were, dirt cheap compared to NYC and SF prices.

All those people you hated in high school have come in from the 'burbs for a night out in The Sucker Club. They're drunk. They're obnoxious. And they're showing way too much post-partum cleavage. Go home touristas! Go home!
