NYC Summer Date Guide: Dirty Dancing Edition

Hey NYC, can you help me with something? I’m looking for my Patrick Swayze for my late summer romance…

The job requirements:

-calling me BABY while lifting me out of a frigid Catskills river***

-pelvic thrusts and steamy body contact

-you taking off your shirt to seduce me into the very underground and very horny lifestyle of dirty dancing

-do not quote Ayn Rand

***For maximum authenticity, I’ll wear only a soaked white t-shirt or a leotard ;)

Okay, so we didn’t book our cabin in the Catskills to stage our weekend rendition of Dirty Dancing, but why don’t we go to the drive in movie theater instead? It just so happens that the Skyline Drive In Theater in Greenpoint Brooklyn is showing Dirty Dancing, on Friday the 6th at 6:30pm. Coincidence, right?

Let’s cuddle up in your car, or in a two person camper chair, and star in our own summer romance. Even better we can play a kissing game. We kiss each time Jennifer Grey says Daddy, when someone gets wet, or Patrick Swayze goes shirtless ;)

Late dinner and cocktails : Let’s dance our way down the sidewalk to Rule of Thirds for their incredible three course roasted duck and their Jigoku cocktail, or Madre, for excellent fluke ceviche and . Want something more classic? I’ve heard incredible things about the hot honey on Paulie Gee’s Hellboy Pizza

Dancing: You’ve seduced me into the horizontal tango, but we’re lifelong learners. Let’s brush up on our vertical tango and salsa skills in the park

So Patrick Swayze, you ready to dance?
