The Scene
New York's version of this chic international club chain is a swept-up, breathtaking space, somewhere between heaven and a harem. The sweeping main room luxuriates in countless pure white pillows, hanging feathery white angel wings, bamboo posts, and almost-Polynesian carved pale wood tables dashed with white votives. Providing shocks of color are vivid orchid centerpieces, a slowly-rotating opalescent spotlight and, most noticeably, the mod servers in white go-go boots and turquoise mini dresses with naughty circle cutouts in front, rendering bra-wear impossible.
The Draw
Head upstairs to lounge full-on in one of the cabana cabin cubbyholes containing beds and pillows. From a long window by the second-story bar, there's a bird's-eye view of the downstairs main room. Though there's no dance floor per se, patrons catching the glamorous Cabo vibe that Nikki's is providing have been known to hop up on the tables and shimmy to the mellow Euro house music. |
