Great with the "Strip" part, but not much else.

There's not much strip club action in downtown Vancouver. The "best" is The Granville Strip, located on fairly safe Granville Street. Arriving 9pm on a weekday, I was greeted by a friendly bouncer behind velvet ropes. After a light frisk and $20CAD entry (CAD = ~.73USD), I entered a cavernous 2-story palace. A huge elevated stage ran along the right, with bar and chair/booth seating around the middle and periphery. LD rooms in the back with more private VIP rooms upstairs on a mezzanine. Clearly upscale, this place gave Vegas vibes with a half-dozen high-quality dancers standing about (Pics: https://www.thegranvillestrip.com/venue)

I sauntered to the bar, ordered my $14-ish mixed drink, and chatted with a blonde stunner standing beside me. From Winnipeg, she was everything I like about home-grown Canadian babes - tall, slender, natural breasts, and no tats. We adjourned to a side booth for more convo and (very) light flirting, during which she informed me semi-private nude but no-touch LDs were $50CAD/3.5mins. Upstairs had larger and presumably more private rooms for $300CAD/30mins. However, she was candid with informing me the no-touch rule remains.

The sky-high prices and mileage limitation made both heads hurt, but when in Rome. So, I ponied up for a trial $50CAD dance. She led me to the back where I paid a grouchy female room attendant. We slipped behind some beads into a smallish, but well-appointed room with a timer into which my babe entered her code. And we were off to the races, as were her clothes in short order. My hands seemed to have minds of their own as I started to lift them toward her. She quickly placed them back on the couch. I guess they're serious about the no-touch rule because I later heard the grouchy attendant shout "No touching the dancer!" at some other hapless PL.
