Note To Reader: Sex/Meat Double Entendre Of Your Choosing Goes Here.

D
id anyone else find it notable that yesterday's NYTimes restaurant review was of a strip club?

I'd never heard of the place, so after reading the review I did a little, um, "research." And found this review, which presents something of a different picture of the Penthouse Executive Club:

"Dont GO
Posted by laserguy on 09/23/2006

So my friend drags me there on a friday night telling me the food is great. We are business guys. We like steaks and gentlemens clubs. I get there and the place is dead. One of the most basic features of any good gentlements club is alot of skin. This one had almost none. I am like looking out at the room and seeing no tail. We order dinner, the porterhouse for two. As the food arrives a couple of the ladies sidle up to our table. Clothed, of course. They join us for dinner and proceed to eat my steak. I gave them sixty dollars and told them to dance. They responded that they were eating. I was flabbergasted. If I am in a club and tell a girl to dance, she should dance immediately without hestitation as though they had been waiting for me to tell them what to do all night. That is how it is supposed to work because I dont care if you are hungry honey. I am the man, this is a club and you are the meat. You dont eat my meat. I actually got into a stare down with this one. She actually challenged me. I was like, do your job. So I paid 300 for a girl to eat my dinner, saw no skin cause they never got down to it and went home hungry proving once and for all that New York night life is a total hustle. I'd rather spend three hundred to throw scraps to my dog. At least a dog knows hot to sit, roll over, beg and be a good little dog."

What a weird choice of places for the restaurant critic at the New York Times to review.

Feminist Law Professors noticed it too. An earlier review got him in a serious food fight. By the way, Bruni is a UNC alum.
