Fying Pan

If you haven't been to the Frying Pan at the Chelsea Pier on 23rd street and you love to dance, you should give it a try. It's a salvaged lightship from 1929 and the dock has a big dancing space and bars. They are only open in the summer. We went there primarily because we know the bartenders there. But I had a really great time.

Pros: You can sit and drink on the Fying Pan or on a dock feeling the breeze from the Hudson River. They have a smaller dance room in the basement of this ship (2nd pic). Exploring this salvaged ship is reallly fun. You can go into each room: kictchen, bedroom, and the controling room. It's good for a date scene but also great for a group.


Cons: The bathroom is awefully dirty, especially for ladies. Many non-NY people and youngsters were the majority. You don't wanna go if it rains. The music is different every night. Last night, Friday, was a mix of house music (we didn't really enjoy this selection) and some hip-hop.

Overall, it was a lot of fun for Little Miko.
