5/4/08- A couple of months ago I moved back to New York City
after almost 5 years of absence. I know the city
pretty well and I can get around all over without any
problems except for Queens. I’ve got lost so many
times in Queens is not even funny! But I’ll tell you
about Queens some other time.

I went with few of my friends to a place in Washington
Heights (the upper side of Manhattan), to have a drink
and have fun. The place is called Fibe and it is
located on Broadway and 171st street. The food is
pretty good the prices are not too expensive, the
service is very good, and the ambiance was great!
The best part, it was filled with Latinos/Hispanics
that were there to enjoy the music and the Saturday
night Karaoke.

From the DJ (I can’t remember her name) to the people
singing and dancing, we all had a pretty good time.
Since I don’t need to be drunk to make a fool of
myself, I was one of the first people to sing a song
in Karaoke, which by the way, offered songs in English
and in Spanish!

There was a table with like 10 people, most of them
women, and they were singing most of the songs. As
time was passing, one could see the liberating effects
of the alcohol, seeing that more and more singers were
up to the microphone. In between singers, there was
“dancing” music, and it was a great pleasure to see
real Bachata dancers! There is a trick on the feet
that not everybody knows how to do it!
So, if you are in New York, or you plan on coming any
time soon, this is a great place to party
Latino/Hispanic style.

The best thing for me was to see real women. I mean,
women with real curves! They were not afraid of their
few extra pounds, and definitely not ashamed of moving
to the rhythm of whatever music was on! Those Latinas
were shaking everything and having so much fun! I
wish these women were the ones we could see more as
role models and in the cover of magazines. I wish I
could be more like them… because I might be able to
carry a tune every once in a while, but when I try
dancing, I’m a sack of potatoes!
