Michelle Kicks Ass at Uncle Mike's



So I finally got around to visiting Uncle Mike's. I was there last Tuesday with a couple of jokers, part of the NYCBP Monthly Party. It is located at 57 Murray Street, at West Broadway.

As luck would have it, Michelle was working. What a star bartender. It took a few minutes for her to warm up, but then she was on a roll. She did a long stint bartending at a strip joint, so this Colorado native can pretty much put up with anything. When she said her two favorite things are baseball and porn, I was hooked for life.

I asked why the hell anyone should visit her, and Michelle said she's a good hang. I'll say. At $4 a Bud Light, I'd have moved in. Why oh why did I like this bar? I found out the owner is none other than Dave McWater, who also owns Doc Holliday's, Nice Guy Eddie's, and scores more good bar. They have a pretty stupid happy hour, two for one, but only from 1-5, which is good if you are a construction worker (don't drop any steel on me, please).

One really, really good thing about Uncle Mike's: it is next door to New York Dolls. A little past 8 p.m. around nine strippers got off work and came into the bar for their dinner and post-stripping bullshit session. Overheard at the bar: "I love seeing strippers get off work."

You can catch Michelle:
Tuesday: 11 AM to 8 PM
Wedneday: 11 AM to 8 PM (with Cindy from The Patriot)
Thursday: 5 PM to 2 AM

Michelle is also a notable fetish photographer, so check out her web site.

Be sure to visit and tell Michelle you saw her on NYCBP.

Everyone loves an Irish girl!

Meet Sherein!!



I recently had the pleasure to meet Sherein. She is building up a great night at Solas on Sunday nights. Besides her great company there are TV's and fantastic drink specials:
$3 draft beer til 8pm,
$4 for the rest of the night.$4 mojitos/margaritas/caipirinhas/red or white sangria.
sunday specials on martinis, $7/$8.

I asked her a few questions and this is what she had to say:

Q: What is your favorite part of bartending?
A: my favorite part of bartending is the way it is so social - you get to meet so many interesting people from all over the world.
Q: How does bartending in America differ from Ireland?
A: There is far more variety here in America - with all the different cocktails here, I feel I am constantly learning sometihing new
Q: Why should people come and see you?
A: thats pretty easy - great music, cheap drinks all day and night, fun vibe and of course people can request music if they want.
Q: What's the funniest/craziest thing you've ever seen while working?
A: I have not seen anything too crazy yet - just the usual people dancing on the bar and the odd person buying shots for everyone there!!
Q: What do you wish all customers knew?
A: How great Solas is on a Sunday!!
