A cross
between a large bar and a small club, the Dublin has plain wood floors but expensive
drinks. Its weekend disco parties are frequented by stiletto-heeled gals and aspiring mafi-
osi who reserve tables with the compulsory bottle of whiskey. The burly black-clad secur-
ity guards out front add a comic touch.
