Expect an evening of socializing and networking with other international professionals, so the dress code is after-work or dress-to-impress attire. No sneakers, t-shirts, etc. If the Griffin security team feels that you are not dress appropriately for this upscale event, you will *not* be admitted, no questions asked.

Citysearch Featured Review: Improving upon the former P.M. space with gilded mirrors and glittering chandeliers, this ornately decorated MePa District cocktail den has a distinctly upscale vibe--even the cocktail waitresses are outfitted in slinky Catherine Malandrino dresses--but without any off-putting pretension at the door. Scoot past the velvet rope to secure a seat on the plush champagne colored antique couches or in one of several circular booths, where table service is quick to take your order. Bring plenty of cash, however, as cocktails such as the Louisiana Purchase (made with cognac, lemon and honey) run $16 a pop.

If it's been a while since you braved the cobblestones, head down Gansevoort, find your way inside the enormous unmarked doors and saunter into what is unmistakably a brand-new club—you can tell by the oversized chandelier emanating from the giant framed-mirror ceiling, the VIP balcony and the blue velvet banquettes you'll be dancing on shortly. Which means you'll probably want to ease back into the glory of the MPD, so start with something that should feel all too familiar: a strong Manhattan, crafted by the Milk & Honey/Little Branch vets running the bar.
