After taking July off, Kosher Sushi Club is ramping up. This month we’re heading down to one of my old stomping grounds, Rue 13. Located on the Wash Ave strip, Rue 13 is the only night club to survive the gentrification of the neighborhood. A couple years back, Washington Ave. was home to upwards of a dozen clubs. Almost all have vanished or moved to other neighborhoods.
Despite being a night club, Rue has always had consistently good sushi. Wednesday night they offer fantastic drink specials ($1 Pabst, well and infused sake), and I believe the reduced price sushi menu is in effect if you order early (but please don’t quote me on that … I could be wrong). If you stay late enough, a fantastic local DJ, Kenny Kingston, will take you on a journey through time as he visits “dollar bin” records of 1985 – 1995.
Good sushi, cheap booze, great beats — how can we go wrong? Hope to see you there!
On to the details:
