Friday night at the Fat Cat




Summer Fridays finishing at lunch time are the best idea since sliced bread. Despite the dramatic thunder, lightening and rain that we concluded was the size of large thimbles, we were not put us off heading out and making the most of our first weekend in NY. We started our at Bowlmor lanes with glow in the dark pins and a bar man who gave us overpriced gin instead of overpriced vodka by mistake. It was very exciting to think that we may have been wearing the shoes or bowling the same balls that celebs such as Mila Kunis, Uma Therman and Freddie Prinze Jnr. We were all pretty terrible at bowling but it was great! 


We then headed to a place recommended in my city guide called the Fat Cat. Quite possibly the most amazing little underground find. A bar full of pool tables, ping pong, chess and darts with live jazz bands playing all night. We sat right at the front on the sofas drinking beers feeling like we were hanging out with Ray Charles. "Praise the Lord!". Magical- we will be coming back here for sure.
