Well, since this is the HOT...

Well, since this is the HOT Lap Dance Forum then I will presume that HLD will be the standard by which other Gentlemen's Clubs will be compared to. Good luck.

Before HLD I was a semi-regular at Gallagher's 2000 so I figured I would resume my quest to fill my HLD void somewhere new. I always heard Scandals is a close second to G2K so let's give it a shot. I go in Tuesday night around 10pm. Club is somewhat empty around a dozen guys, girls outnumber men at 1.5 to 1. I grab a spot at the bar and order a Stella, when seemingly on queue a dancer sneaks up behind me. She is no doubt gorgeous, I thought she was latina but the Russian accent threw me. She reminded me a bit of Paula Garces (I've had her on the brain lately since The Shield started) but with a little asian threw in. Asian? Yep. I asked where she was from and she ambiguously replied Central Asia. WTF does that mean. Russia is in Asia right? Nope, she's from between Russia and China. So are you a Russian/Chinese chick? Nepalese? Tibetan? Mongolian? Who cares she was hot. We were chatting a bit when she got called to the stage. I sat down to get a lay of the land. There's the main stage which the bar surrounds. Its burlesque style where the girls come out from behind a curtain. Further back are lounge chairs I sat in and a little stage where Regina the ambiguous Asian Russo dancer was stripping. She had a great body, BTW. The girls at the club are gorgeous, a lot of variety, even some older ones but still hot. Behind Regina and the stage was a sectioned off VIP section, I only saw a couple of girls go back with some customers, in plain view of the club so I don't know what makes it VIP since there isn't any privacy. Regina finished her stage dance and offered me a private lap dance. That is given in a semi-private room off to the side of the bar. $20 bucks to enter the room plus $20 bucks for each song/lap dance. There are a couple of lounge chairs but the action takes place in these sectioned off space age boxes separated by walls like office cubicles. Mirrors on the opposite wall give you a view of you and the dancer and if you lean a little, to the guy in the next cubicle. Regina gives me a typical lap dance with the usual grind. I was never offered any extras or was given the hint that there are any ever offered. No hints from Regina that my hands could roam freely. I even flat out asked her if I could touch her more and she said that's why there's security here. That's all I needed to know. The lap dance and beer was finished and I didn't find a reason to stay any longer. I'm not passing any final judgment on Scandals yet because it was the one night with the one girl. I will be back but first I will review some other clubs first to see which ones come closest to that HLD experience.
