This Bracelet Will Get Your Kid High Someday
Lauri Apple · 10/29/11 02:31PMAre East Village Hookah Bars The New Fronts? Is This Some Sort Of Pyramid Scheme?
Josh · 03/28/07 12:45PMThe East Village is full of hookah bars and yet hookah bars are never full of East Villagers. What up? The inappropriate preponderance of hookah bars is an unimpeachable fact. We count nearly 15 in the strict East Village, each most notable for its complete total lack of patrons. Sure, we see why it seems like a good idea to open up a shisha lounge: a nice detour around no-smoking laws, low overhead, no kitchen needed, smoking is fun. But, the demand for a good hookah bar is limited to 15 or 20 NYU students who relish long discussions about Walker Percy while enjoying a delightful apple-scented tobacco.
