The dining area serves meals that warm the soul, like grilled cheese with smoked bacon and tomato soup dumplings, whereas the second-floor is equipped with a spacious lounge and bar, serving tasty cocktails like the Melon Mojito. But it’s the designated ladies room, where free champagne is served, that has us squealing in girlish delight.
