The Place: Resembling something between a bar, a restaurant, and a closet, the Place’s ambiguous atmosphere gives it a certain forbidden charm. The food portions seem to correspond to this eatery’s size, and the term intimacy takes on new meaning here. This hideout is a great place to take your mistress (or your college roommate’s girl, depending on your year of graduation), because it’s dark, and after your illicit date sits down, there’s little room for anyone else. Even the outdoor seating area makes you nearly invisible from the street, with its shady canopy. The Place has an interesting wine selection, and the friendly staff is quick to make a recommendation. Having an affair? You don’t even need to make up a code name, just meet at “the place.” |
