| What do my innocent eyes behold? |
The restaurant was dark, lit by low ambiance lighting and chandeliers, velvet curtains and covered chairs decorated the corners, two levels of seating give the look of a small, quaint opera house. I noticed the decor for a second and then I noticed the entertainment. Tall, chiseled, oiled down men wearing hardly anything with black timbs, elevated, dancing as the guests were all seated.
Upon being seated, I took my eye off of the dancing statuesque man as our server for the event made himself known. He was also barely dressed, masculine body clearly moisturized with a huge smile, "Hi, I will be your server and part of the entertainment today." Well salutations Laurence! haha He points out the 4-course brunch menu as well as advises that once each bottle of bubbly is finished, simply turn it upside down and another will be provided for the table. On the table were 2 carafes filled with orange and cranberry juice. Finally, there was also a small ramekin filled with peach nectar. Dana and I immediately filled up our champagne glasses, sipping as our attention returned to the dancing gods surrounding us.

| My mimosa concoction: bubbly, peach nectar, cranberry juice, then slowly top with OJ for the layered look in the photo. |
THE FOOD:
The food was ok. It was not horrible but the table would have benefited from a salt and pepper shaker.
 |
| The brunch menu and potato leek soup. The soup was hot, great taste but needed salt and maybe a dash of pepper. |
 |
| Pastrami Seasoned Smoked Salmon: it was ok. Not much taste. Again, where is the salt? |
 |
| Cheese omelette with kale salad. Um I do not eat eggs so I did not partake. However, I really enjoyed the salad! The dried pineapple and smoked gouda went really well together. The kale was fresh, crispy and the dressed was full of flavor! |
 |
| Dark chocolate with pistachios. Really good - decadent. Perfect finish! |
THE ENTERTAINMENT:
The entertainment was quite impressive! My favorite performances were the chain and ribbon aerial performances!
I also enjoyed the "Magic Mike" like synchronized dancing routines which happened in a stage above the bar. These parts of the show are made to make the guests feel, see, experience but only fantasize.
And finally, there are what I like to refer to as the "mayhem" parts of the experience. If you know me, you know I actually do NOT like male strippers. I have never understood the need to see half naked men swingin' their d*cks and doing back flips. Naw. However, this was quite different and I was entertained and even made it "sprinkle" a few dollas (by a few I mean $40)! The music was great, the men were literally hopping, flipping, slidin' their way from table to table, entertaining the women for a minute or two and then boom, the next gladiator was at your table ready to entertain!

| Shots, shots shots! |

| We nicknamed him Emilio as he reminded us of Emilio Estevez from his Young Guns days. ha |
All in all this is a really fun event! Dana and I laughed, sipped, stared in awe, danced, objectified, ate and enjoyed SIR Sunday at SAX. Interested? Of course you are! There are two shows every Sunday: 11am and 2pm. You must buy your tickets in advance: Sir Sundays at SAX tickets. Tickets are $50-$100. As a belated birthday gift, Dana purchased the VIP tickets at $65 and we were seated right on the main floor (oh the access!).
