Asia SF is definitely NOT for the close minded people. A majority of the "women" that work there are damn beautiful. We're talking long legs, toned, tanned, and big boobies. They are all insanely friendly to boot. We got the Menage a Trois which is three course meal consisting of the first course, main course, then dessert all for $38. I started off with the sake steamed mussels. This was definitely a main course in terms of portion. I didn't want it to ruin my appetite before the main course even came but I tried my best and was only able to finish half of it. The mussels are served in a bowl of spicy red curry-kafir lime leaf broth. They provide you with mini-forks to use to fork out the mussels from the shells. They came off with so much ease it just made me that more excited to get down to business! The mussels were so juicy and it definitely brought the heat. The lime flavor was very strong. If you can't take spicy then this dish isn't for you. The garlic bread is also included inside the bowl. In my opinion, the two didn't go together but the bread was good nonetheless. For my main course, I ordered the Miso Glazed King Salmon. The sauteed miso glazed Pacific Salmon was served on top of a sweet tomato-edamame salad with this scary looking black rice sandwiched inbetween. The tomato-edamame salad tasted very fresh but it didn't have much flavor to it. Don't let the black rice scare you. It looks like wet rabbit poop but it is actually very tasty. I liked the idea of meshing the cold salad with the warm rice. It wasn't something my palette was used to. I don't normally order Salmon when I go out because most places cook it until the fish is dry and flakey. The fish was very moist and tender. The texture was almost like biting into a very tender piece of chicken. For dessert, I got the warm chocolate cake which was a chocolate cake with a melted chocolate ganache filling. It's served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, topped with chocolate and butterscotch sauce. You also get a few raspberries. The chocolate was very rich and the chocolate filling makes it that much more sweeter. Now I understand why they serve it with vanilla bean. The chocolate can be too much so it's highly suggested that you eat it with the vanilla bean. Their drinks are very strong and they all have dirty names to them. I think they name a drink after each "lady" that has worked there. I remember seeing some martini which may have had a woman's name and may have had the word bush in it. On top of this three course meal, you get a wonderfully entertaining show. Each lady will come out twice in their little costumes and dance across the bar with their selected song. Just the show alone is worth every penny that you're going to spend here. If you happen to come with a large party, you should definitely go downstairs and check out their club. One cool tidbit: I won't have to go all the way up north for Asia SF anymore because they're going to open one up in Hollywood soon!

I went to STK during fashion week, and the only reason we got a table at this trendy Meatpacking restaurant is because I was with someone who had close ties with the manager. They gave us a fabulous table and two rounds of drinks on the house. Glorious. We were surrounded by models and actors, so I felt a tad out of place, to say the least. Still, the server treated us extremely well and was ready and willing to answer any question we had. The place is called STK so right away, I knew I'd be met with a menu unfriendly to my vegan diet. It didn't mater. One of the chefs came out and said he would make something for me he thinks I would enjoy. He brought out a beautifully bright plate of assorted grilled vegetables and potatoes. It truly was delicious and went well with all my wine. Everyone else had various apps, including sliders (mini burgers). They just couldn't stop going on about how delicious all their food was. I believed it - it looked and smelled to die for. Still, not my taste. I'm not sure I would ever return to this spot on my own, but would happily tag along with friends who insisted on going.

Haven't been yet(to Booby Trap, that is), but thought I'd mention that the club is now -weekly- due to its popularity. So, ignore the stars, for now. May review after I check it out, I'm definitely excited. :) P.S. In case it isn't clear, Temporary Spaces is merely the venue, the club that this page is referring to is the aforementioned Boob Trap, a lesbian club that gets some gay boys and straight couples as well.
