Among the sofa of Puccini and a goatee ... 
Last weekend Max and I we went to a milonga in the old Cafe Simo, (via Fillungo, Lucca).
It was like being thrown into another era, the charm of the glittering display cases, sculpted cakes, chocolate rivers, in frames of bronze mirrors, a grand piano, the floor a bit 'rough
This ... Coffee was the most famous of the last century and has retained much of its original. In three rooms, with wood paneling on the walls and sofas, in fact, customers flocked detail. One particular was called "the drawing room of celebrities." Stopped there, over time, Verdi and Puccini, Carducci and Pascoli, Catalani and Viani, Verga and Mascagni Ungaretti Simo ... The coffee is considered a jewel of a city and ducal elegant, quiet and sophisticated. They say that drinking a cup of coffee here has the flavor of a silent ritual ... it is better to prepare themselves spiritually to the drawing off of account, if you want to lay down their buttocks where he laid Puccini ... o)
However, in this dance niche is really impressive!
But ... I must say that I feel nostalgia for a room much more appealing, that is, the Belle Epoque in New York (827 Broadway) ... Friday is considered the most beautiful evening, with live music (every week! !) and sensational dancers (also happens to meet that funny guy ... and above all modest Pablo Veron).
But the place is spectacular, of course everything in the French style of the first 900 years ... wrought iron tables, crystal vases, lamps ... liberty is very narrow space for dancing, a square where if you make a volley in line Take the jaw someone sitting on the other side of the room .... (Maybe Veron! Haha) ...
There is also a kind of balcony that is reached by a narrow staircase, and here are willing microtavolini from which to enjoy the show ... The entrance costs about $ 20, if you want to eat well candle light you'll want to scrub your credit card the next team (Veron) ... And here
women and men seem to really immerse themselves in another time, as if interpreting the roles of the "femme fatale" and "Tombeur de femmes" .... At least until 2002, had enjoyed the elegant dress (and you did not come in jeans, I swear .... But Veron, but know ...) and the legs in women and lace garter wrapped suave pinstripes of the tango.
UEEEE CLANDESTINIIIIIIIII !!!!! we go there?
