Man, I've been seeing ads for "Todd's" Downtown Banana Lounge showing up a lot lately.
The promise of free beer intrigues me. Strangely, the ads haven't said where Saturday night's grand opening party was located or what time the party starts. Hmm. So I dialed up the "Todd" in Todd's Downtown Banana Lounge: Todd Berkowitz.
Todd cleared up the oversight, saying everything starts at 7 and the place to be is the southwest corner of 18th and Central in the Crossroads. Todd's favorite drink, he was sure to mention, is Clear 10 Vodka with a banana wedge. Mm hmm. But this guy knows how to market a party. Who can resist "free beer" and "classy broads"? But Todd insisted that the grand opening is a VIP affair, though he told me he'd welcome all party people who e-mail him.
But how can I doubt Todd after the guys at Bicmedia, home of the Celsius Tannery jingle, vouched for him in song.
So who is Todd Berkowitz? His answer was a little vague, but he does sound like a club owner extraordinaire.
"He looks at himself in the mirror every day and says, 'How can I be
awesome?' '" Todd said in a moment of self-examination. "I believe that awesomeness leads to
greatness. And he's very much a fan of the ladies. He is a ladies man
but not like the movie Ladies Man. He's very in tune with the ladies."
Whoever Todd is, sounds like he's throwing a helluva party Saturday night.
