Editorial Review

Shucks, it’s Kitty and the crew from Gunsmoke. Saloon-esque watering hole with gold-brocade wallpaper, red velvet booths, mural of cavorting cherubs on the ceiling. Trapdoor once housed a pole for topless dancers to slide into the laps of happy drinkers during the ’50s, when Bing Crosby owned the joint. Crowd is half tourists, half bartenders, 100 percent hard drinkers. Good thing your hotel’s right around the corner.
