I went this weekend to Taste of Honey, plus once in 2023. $50 cover, I was given 1 drink ticket with cover, hours on instagram are 9pm-4am. I came 910 pm, door was locked
, came back 940pm, they were open. There were no men and just me, 1 dancer, and staff until 1030pm, by 11pm it was 10 women, me and 1 other customer guy. 15 dancers by 1130pm. it peaked at 13 AAs and 3 latinas at 11pm, hottest latina was getting dances with another guy, and I think left early before I was freed up with my first girl (other latina). I saw 3 other customers during the night (I left at 2am), 1 cust did get a VIP room with the hottest one, she then left. Throughout the night, I saw 4-6 half staff or promoters of the girls. Practically no real customers but me and exactly 1 other guy an hour all night. I wanted to see if it ever picks up, or is some kind of after party zone. Its not. Every girl and legit monger is there by 1130pm or 12am.
Some the girls were only about blazing with their handlers, or couldn't say anything more than wanna dance, I tried to talk to them for 1 minute, they said excuse me and spent the rest of the night smoking with their managers or staff n other ho friends. I'd rather goto Showpalace or Sugardaddys instead, same mixed/latina looks, more filtered on looks, and better chances at grabbing next girl if the first you say hi to has a sour pure biz attitude. I was the only person to every buy a lapdance or spend $ AFAIK, plus that 1 VIP room guy. I did click with 1 latina, who knew perfect english (probably USA born), said it was her first night ever being a stripper, I was able to talk and smile, had well taken care of fake blonde hair, but pretty bad Fish BO during the dance, so that prevented me from asking about extras or bothering to get her num. I got a couple offers of private strip club parties in Bronx and Brooklyn from the various promoters, but b/c of lack of talent here, which would represent whatever other things these promoters promote, I skipped swapping numbers with them. My spring 2023 visit was also unimpressive, but I stayed only 20 minutes and left 1030pm. It was 6 AA girls, 2 white, zero latinas, and maybe 5-6 guys. I saw no hope and left quick.
I'll stick to Experience on Thu night, at the same venue. which is always atleast 20 girls, and much better looks/attitude of the girls, for the same exact expenses.
About Harmony, I went back in November on a Friday, it was 9 guys, 4-8 girls, plus some questionable purpose, but very hot girls, that came in groups, wearing upscale pants, I couldn't tell if they are sugars/working, single female guests, or girlfriends of customers. I'd recommend every guy to ask any solo female guests "hey you look great tonight, who did you come with?", I suspect some of them are available/working girls, they just don't want to wear stripper clothes. Some of the not-strippers girls did swap numbers with old guys. 3 of the pleaser girls quit between 930-1030pm, because the guys were not spending and just smoking and hanging with other guys. I was the richest guy in the club I felt. Its mostly AA or latina, 1-2 blondes. Max 10 girls on paper or max 10 thru the night if you stay from opening to 12 am which I did. Venue has a bar/social area in the front, narrow hallway with a bathroom, storage closets, and VIP rooms, and in the very back a smoke room and a 2nd room that has a DJ more seats, with a stage and pole. Venue is decorated well. I never saw any girl use the stage, any guy throw singles (guys seem broke), or buy a dance. 1 bathroom total at harmony, there is always a line. Piss or take a dump before you get to harmony. Bring alot of $1s and $5s, esp $1s. Its BYOB take your bottle back, but the bartender wants $1 per drink as a tip, or I'm too nice because it was free cover. 420 friendly, lotsa 420, hotbox time. Cover was free all night back in november, latest ad says free cover before 11pm, $20 after. harmony is on my revisit list. It has alot of overlap in faces with customers and strippers from Experience party, but no common staff or promoters. The dancers, at harmony the attitudes were much friendlier than Taste of Honey, all Harmony girls I spoke with could do a 5-10 min convo about random crap. Looks wise, were hotter than Taste of Honey but the hottest ones, were snapped up so quick by other guys, I had no chance. Harmony BADLY underbooks girls. I got a more of an apartment party feeling, or everyone is family feeling at Harmony than I did at Taste of Honey, where the girls were married to their plugs and drivers. At harmony, there were some other AMP mongers, had a drink with me and we talked biz and they passed on some amps and agencies intel to me. At Taste of Honey, all guys who started a talk with me, were there to make $, not spend $, not a good vibe.
There is a semi brand new lapdance party opening up Jan 23 Tuesday night 7pm-2am lower Manhattan, I've been to it before, getting into it is very hard without an existing member/hookup, extras are possible, it has some advertising on other sites but not alot, not sure if I can name it publicly, its never been reviewed on AMPR. I'm going to the Tue Jan 23 party, if someone wants its full details DM me. If someone went before, and is brave enough to drop a full review on here, go ahead.
