In a post yesterday I claimed that the gin and tonics at Dante's are overpriced. Frank Faillace, the owner of the downtown club, dropped me a line last night to set the record straight. A quick excerpt from his email with all the pertinent corrections:

Expensive gin & tonics at dante's??? Gin & tonic actual prices: $3.50 11 am to 9pm, $4.50 after 9pm...helps pay for entertainment on the stage.

Based on my experiences, $3.50 - $4.50 is about average for a downtown lounge. But, then again, my memory isn't what it used to be. Lately, it's only correct 66.6% of the time. Sorry, Frank and thanks for the head's up.
