Bar Blanc:
Gorgeous, desirable, drool-worthy…we’re not just talking about Bar Blanc, but its clientele and staff, too. It’s one of those chic West Village spots you stumble upon, and you’ll be glad you did—the elegant black and “blanc” décor is accented with red flowers and birch tree candles, giving a slightly less pretentious feel to this upscale restaurant/lounge. The white leather couches and earthy pillows create a perfect place for cozy group cocktails or an intimate evening—and all classes of drinkers can be fulfilled, with a worldly wine list varying in bottle price from $38 to $295. Adventurous types will be thrilled with the seasonally-changing cocktail selection, so don't be shy about asking the bar staff, who are as helpful as they are hot.
