Going into the place was the usual for a nice warm day. Guys grilling at the bottom of the ramp, $10 cover collected outside, pat down inside. One thing new from previous visits - the bouncer who did the pat down was very visibly open carrying a handgun on his waist. Another change which may or may not be so recent is that they now have a full bar downstairs where they used to only have a few drinks from the fridge. Not a single person was wearing a mask.

Layout is still as described here often - 2-in-1 bar with La Pearl downstairs and Outer Space upstairs. La Pearl is just a long, thin room with a long bar with seats along it - and a few additional seats against the wall at the far end. Plus a bathroom and a janitorial closet / VIP room at the other end. Sat in some of those far end seats for quite awhile and got several dances from multiple ladies. One named Chocolate was quite nice - moderately skinny for the place, but quite curvy in all the right places. Also enjoyed two other dancers. The second one was very tall and skinny. The third one was young and sweet - early 20s at the most. All had the same basic policy - $5/song but $10/song if you went skin-on-skin. Only Chocolate tried to upsell me to the VIP room. The third one included more air dancing than the others, but also a lot more stick shifting. So, overall very enjoyable. None of them suggested FS right there, which regulars know is not a rare occurance.

Also spent some time upstairs at Outer Space. A little bigger than downstairs - bathroom & dancer lockers to the right, stage with a long bench opposite, bar & VIP room at the far end. Somebody selling trinkets next to the stage. Lots of really big girls. Not just Rubenesque but Hogarthian. Not everyone fit in this mold, but it was surprising how many did. And they spent a lot of time on stage, especially the biggest one who had some kind of flashing LED lights in her not-at-the-moment private parts. One thick but not huge lady I found very attractive. She had on an red-to-orange wig and wore only suspenders up top. Unfortunately, she started with, "My dances are $10. Is that a problem?" It is for me, but I did just one anyway. Have to admit, she also did the best job of pleasing the little guy without any skin contact.
