Vod Box

The crowning moment for our commendable dinner at Nic's Martini Lounge was the visit to the Vod Box. Mitch Hunter, General Manager, and Larry Nicola escorted Andy Harris and me into the vodka room, aka The Vod Box, but not until offering faux fur coats. For all of the restaurant's gracious human element and the warm welcome from Mitch and Larry, the box is COLD. There were rye vodkas, wheat vodkas, grape vodkas, filtered and unfiltered vodkas. Frankly, I lost count as I perused the floor to ceiling shelves of bottles. Andy and I sipped a few varieties. Highly recommended - "Chtob vse byli zdorovy".
