Editorial Review
The biggest nerds grow up to be dapper philosophers. Dive or no dive? Signless shopfront in hair-raising barrio points to yes, alas clean living, positive vibe and conscientious staff all fail to qualify. Silent black and white films make visual noise, boys in skinny ties read trivia pursuit questions whilst shooting pool. Canned beer from Russia, Dutch classics, chocolate stout. Actual red derby floats about people's heads like a Magritte painting. This is not a dive.
