Creme

Editorial Review

In a line-up of U Street lounges, crème de la crème. Oprah tosses salad, chicken comes with waffles, Sweet Alabama desserts. Dashing cream interior, limited seating has you knocking knees with beautiful strangers. When the clock strikes ten, tables get shoved to the wall and the ball begins. Cinderella (played by Beyoncé) enters after eleven, quickly loses glass slippers to danceable electro-rhythms, meets hip-hop prince. The morning after they return for a classy drunken brunch.
