version 3.0 at executive club on 11th ave is worth checking out

i have been four times to the new location at the (formerly penthouse) executive club where its been for a couple of months and like it a lot.

lido (new name - la rouge) has taken over the main floor of the location. there is a bar to the right where most of the people hang out, a lot of couches to sit in the middle four large lap dance areas in the four corners. the lap dance areas are tasteful (for a pop-up strip club anyway).

the bouncers dont come around and bother the dancers and so ymmv entirely depending on the girl and you, but generally very high. in contrast, i had been to lido OLD location a couple of times when it moved to upstairs at sapphire 39 in the summer where sapphire's ridiculous policing policy was a killjoy (bouncer walking around every 3 mins, minimal contact etc).
