A night out in Palermo Hollywood

The scene here is quite a bit different then you might be used to.  For one thing, dinner usually does not happen until 10pm and some clubs/bars do not open until 2am and business keeps going on into the morning.

Last night we grabbed dinner around 10:30pm at a place in the Palermo neighborhood that somewhat resembles DC's Adam's Morgan area.  Not necessarily in layout, but in the feel of the area and the clientele at the establishments.

The next stop was this great spot called  Alcornoque resto & lounge bar where we had our own tables and some nice lounge/sofa style seats.  A group of around eight of us had a few rounds of cervasas and assorted other mixed drinks to pass the time until the club opened.  The bill came out to $400 pesos (a little over $100 US).  Needless to say this was a steal.  The service was also great, which is not always the case in ARG relative to what we are accustomed to stateside, which is both a plus and a minus (more on this in another post).

Around 2:30am we walked down the street to a night club where we had drinks, talked, and danced till around 5:30am and were welcomed by the daylight.  Certainly a different experience, but very enjoyable.
