Apres
- La Follies Deuce (translated by google to Sweet Folly)-
THE BEST apres for me EVER. great music, dj, performers, champagne spray, dancing on tables, lauching all the way home. had a perfect day there on a Monday and then again on Friday. Was packed on Wednesday already at noon due to famous Swedish DJ. Lots of electronic and edm there, but with performers live - Bar 360, a Follies Deuce want to be, have special guests, gets shaded and cold quick there.
- In village apres was good too
- Cafe Snesko – Flugel there, dancing on tables, 80s and 90s music there, beer and shots only
- Frog and Roast Beef – ended the nights there usually
- Savon – chill lodge feel with fireplaces, cozy chairs, skins, etc
- Rhum Box – booty shaking video playing on tvs while Bruce Springseen and David Bowie played, lol. Chanting to see what videos owner pulled up, held out for jujus Birthday and it ended up being a local ski video of a friend’s birthday where everyone dressed in ski costumes.
- Malaysia – big club heats up at night and parts like that of city never sleep. pretty good.
