cpnews Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Remember Fall, 2007? The housing market was booming, ballers were buying bottles, and anyone lacking an on call Gulfstream couldn't really be considered anyone. At the same time, the Dow Jones Industrial Index reached 14,000 for the first time. Life was good! Well, those times have come and gone. Unfortunately, some aspects of those heady days are still with us. Allow us to introduce our latest feature, That's So Dow 14,000, where we expose ridiculous things that seemed to make sense for a moment, and are now simply ridiculous. Firmly entrenched as #12 on InStyle's List of New York Hot Spots is DBTH favorite, The Eldridge. You know the drill by now, as the "bartenders are called butlers, security guards are called chaperones and where hospitality consultants accommodate every request." But did you know that ladies are strongly discourage from wearing flats? This dress policy, over-hyped low quality champagne and over priced cocktails are all So Dow 14,000. Funny enough, the DJA really started to tank when the Eldridge opened in late summer 2008. Coicidence? You tell us.More... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
