| - I'm lovin' me some Chez Nous.
Decided to throw caution to the wind and meet a fellow Yelper. Alas, Bonnie G. got lost along the way so I had time to survey the scene with the help of three gin & tonics and two really friendly, cute bartenderesses (I like making up new words).
Music was strictly soul & old school R&B, which fit the mood perfectly. This place is DARK, but in a groovesque and inviting manner (if Barry White was a bar, he'd be Chez Nous). Crowd is one of the more diverse I've seen yet in Phoenix, and if TV's your thing, they've got one at the far end of the bar playing "Grey's Anatomy" on Thursday nights, but as I've never seen that show before, I wasn't going to start now, in this here cool bar of all places.
Around the time Bonnie G arrived, a live band had started playing classic R&B and funk. They were kickass, as were the folks jivin' on the dance carpet. We sat there at the bar, shootin' the shit, and enjoying the music for a few more rounds of drinks.
Like Shady's, I'm pissed that I've driven by this place countless times on my way to and from work and never thought once of going in. But now I know better, which means Chez Nous is going to be frequented by yours truly loads of times moving forward.
Word to "The Noo."
