Sweet Drinks, Vicious Kick
We met up with some friends after work on Friday at a bar on the Lower East Side called Sweet and Vicious. One recently ex-coworker had invited people to celebrate her moving on to another company. She explained that she’d chose the spot for its happy hour, its courtyard, and its dancing.
The bar’s entrance is a large wooden door, with only a small sign. The dimly-lit interior radiates a nice vibe with a warm feel and ample seating. The courtyard is a fairly good size (nothing like the Beer Garden, of course; this is Manhattan). The whole place is great for a party gathering.
The night proved a success. A mixture of current and ex-coworkers, everyone enjoyed venting the stress of the work week. I think of it as an end-of-week purging, which stops those thoughts from invading the rest of the weekend. After three glasses of wine on a dinnerless stomach, I felt indeed very stressfree. Weekday stress purged, fun had, I went home knowing I’ll return to that Sweet and Vicious spot.
