Bow Bow Cocktail Lounge

I’m going to say this in the most plain and honest way I can: I’m pretty sure Candy, the bartender at Bow Bow, is Dionysus disguised as a human being.  It’s the only logical way to explain the way she handles the position of bartender.  It totally makes sense if

An added bonus is that the café subscribes to a bunch of good magazines and has
