The newest addition to the growing Hell's Kitchen gay scene, Vlada Lounge (331 W. 51 St; 212/974-8030) delivers on the ambience, the men, and most importantly, kick-ass cocktails. Named after the owner Vlada von Shats, the inspiration behind the already happening lounge, Vlada serves up over a dozen infused vodkas flavors from cherry to pepper. Mix and match your cocktails, or better yet, order a few carafes of flavored vodka and throw it sback Soviet style like you were born with a shot glass in your hands. As some of you probably were! Vlada also offers a range of performers and activities and hot and cold meals and snacks. Check out the upstairs dining area, especially the front tables which afford a great view of the busy entry.
