From the guy behind the UK's only Michelin-rated Chinese resto, Hakkasan's broken up by dark latticework into a Pacman-like maze of banquettes and semi-private booths, and serves semi-Cantonese fare like roasted silver cod w/ a Chinese honey glaze, jasmine-tea-smoked short ribs, roasted mango duck, and stir-fried ostrich. They're also pouring Asia-fied cocktails like the “Hakka” (vodka/sake/lychee/lime/passionfruit pulp/dash of coconut), and one with vodka, sake, muddled cilantro, ginger, lime, and ginger beer called the Chinese Mule, which will kick you...in bed!
The lowdown on Hakkasan at Fontainebleau.comFrom two Miami dudes so homesick for their rural Southern roots they brought you tee shirts with slogans like "Liquor, Guns & Lotto”, these genuine cowhide beer cozies're stitched up with a neoprene lining, to better keep your beer cold until you're ready for an udder one.

Because you looked hungry/way too sober, SoBe's giving you free sushi for three hours, plus drink specials on wine, sakitinis, and Sapporo. The rotating gratis rolls include the deconstructed spicy tuna (all the spice, none of the rice), the Tropical (bigeye tuna, avocado, salmon, sliced mango), and one with shrimp tempura, avocado, snow crab salad, spicy tuna, and sweet eel sauce called the Tiger, which will soon be turned into a trippy cartoon that tries to sell you Gatorade.

Costa's two newest models, the Corbina and Fisch, both get non-slip Hydrolite lining around their frames' interiors, are available in black, tortoise, or silver frames, and have polarized lens options like lightweight CR-39, or an array of high-def 580 glass hues, which blocks disruptive yellow light -- proving yellow is the raving battle-axe of all colors, and won't let you see other colors, so you should break up with her right away.

Score free Cabana Cachaca 'til midnight and $4 lemondrops (for your girl) all evening, while Grand Groove holds their monthly get-down, featuring live music by moody latin reggae/hip-hop blenders Xperimento downstairs, while upstairs is soul, funk, hip-hop, and broken beats from DJ Sharpsound, Mr. Brown, and a guy named Sir Esq., in case you're worried about the legal ramifications of breaking beats.
