S's Birthday Party - The Delancey


S's birthday was celebrated at The Delancey roof deck located at 168 Delancey Street, Lower East Side. B picked up S at the nail salon with KL, the three of them took a sketchy black cab down to the LES. As we moved downtown in our town car S's birthday crew was busy putting candles on her mini cupcakes. We pulled up to The Delancey and rushed inside to be greeted by Mumm, Whit, Justinien & ALiu with 36 cupcakes on fire! S quickly made a wish only to be tricked by trick candles...thanks Mumm. We laughed as the candles quickly melted into these tiny cakes only be lite again and again and again.

Shortly after we all indulged in pumpkin, sunshine, & black & white...just right cupcakes we headed to the bar. We quickly learned that they were having a $5.00 BBQ, yum! We had burgers, hot dogs, and potato salad, not bad for $5 bucks. Every Wednesday!

The space is actually great. Since the weather report said there was a 90% chance of precipitation we knew the roof deck idea might fail but luckly The Delancey has a retractable roof. That was fantastic except for the fact that they also had a huge grill on, so the air inside the space was...let's just say smokey, as noted in the photo. The set-up was intimate and it allowed us to stay within our group. We had a great time catching up.

Roof Deck:
Space - good for parties, nice view, LES crew
Music - dead

After we drank upstairs we decided to take our party downstairs to enjoy some A/C. We were greeted by Scooter Pie from Sugar Shack; burlesque dancers that perform ever Wednesday, who knew?! Their show is called "Shaken & Stirred" and we definitely got that impression. Definitely some talented ladies, but we were turned off by the creepy men who thought 2 girls dancing around on a stage was hot. The show started around 10:30. The first girl was tall, pale skin, and thin. She did a cute number which ended with her in her red undies & tassels. The 2nd girl, we won't mention her at all. Loo, S, B, & Justinien had some great laughs as they imagined S showing up to work wearing only tassels on her boobs and making copies...hilarious.

Downstairs:
Space - could be good for parties
Burlesque Show - good idea but let's try to keep the creeps out
Music - Michael Jackson - Don't Stop Til You Get Enough & Little Richard - Tutti Frutti

- S&B
