Say ‘Cheese’
Locca Club Istanbul
Your birthday:
a) Party at home: ‘No way, Jose’, say the parents/neighbours/girl-boy friend/roommate.
b) Party at Babylon: If only you could afford it.
c) Drinking under the bridge against Bosphorus: ‘You’re coming with us to the police station, sir’.
There are things that money can’t buy. For others, there’s Locca Club.
Newly opened in the most chi chi part of town (a.k.a Nişantaşı), this place has everything set for a thrashed evening out—starting with the burly doormen.
Walk through the tunnel with poster-size blown-up pictures of celebrities like Beyoncé and Demi Moore emblazoned all around, and you feel as if walking into a dazed teenager’s room. Inside, the Eurotrash (the concept of Locca’s said to be imported from Switzerland) escalates into a large bar area and private seating (all leather, bien sur). Pretty, long-legged fake-blond revellers posing for cameras complete the scene.
DJ’s and DJane’s playing at the table make sure that you get the best out of the evening named after any one of Russian or Brooklyn Nights themes, or anything of your choice since it’s your night.
So, call your buddies and have the next best thing to the apocalyptic house party you always dreamed of.
(That’s what Corey should have done).
