I had been meaning to try...

I had been meaning to try FD for a while since it's reputedly the better of the Manhattan clubs. I stopped by when I had a couple of hours to kill in the afternoon, figuring I'd win out on the club not being too busy.

When I was there the girls were definitely quite attractive - I didn't see too many 10s (it was around 2-3 PM and I'm assuming the real talent shows up for a better shift) but I didn't see too many who weren't quite obviously good-looking; a couple of the girls on the stage were hard for me not to ogle.

I ended up grabbing a drink with a tall, leggy Russian girl, a brunette with nice, perky but not particularly large natural breasts. (I got the sense it was pretty heavily Eastern European in terms of the dancer population, and being able to speak Russian makes for a quick icebreaker).

She suggested a few dances and the lap dance (well, dances, I'm a pushover) were quite good and sensual - I definitely felt like I got my money's worth. She tried to upsell me once or twice on going to a private room but I didn't have that kind of money on me or that kind of time on that particular day.

You're never going to get great value in Manhattan - but FD lives up to its reputation as a place with very high-quality talent and, at least in my case, a girl who was able to make that fleeting (let's face it, largely fake) connection for a few minutes and make me feel good.
