Or is it St George?

I know these were a thing in the mid 20th century. But I thought they had mostly gone away by the 1970’s.

quote:

Las Vegas made its way to Baton Rouge as Brandon Landry’s Supper Club opened Tuesday night on Perkins Road in Baton Rouge. Tucked away behind Anthem Bank & Trust, the restaurant stands tall, dark and mysterious.

The modern dining parlor has been talked about around town with a whisper. Many Baton Rouge residents knew the general details, like the owner and location, but there was a certain ambiguity surrounding the restaurant and its concept. To keep the mystery and romance going, the restaurant phone number isn’t listed on its website. Instead, guests receive a personal phone call from the staff to confirm reservations.


quote:

The opening night guests arrived at the windowless, black building to greet a doorman, who had a certain air about himself – as if he were alerting patrons that what’s inside is suave, too. He gracefully opened the giant door — it’s a 10-feet tall and 6-feet wide oak door to the foyer, which is lined with maroon, alligator-skin wallpaper and adorned with a pink, neon sign that reads, “Supper Club.”

Hidalgo runs the Instagram-based food blog, “Boozey Foodiez.” She said that Supper Club was unlike anything she’s experienced before in Baton Rouge.

The doorman closed the door in the foyer, which is dark, intimate, and seems doorless. The room felt like another doorman might appear and ask for a password so that patrons could continue their way into the restaurant. After a moment, the doorman simply said, “The door is to the right,” — a phrase he surely spoke over and over again opening night.

He pointed to a small, almost invisible door that had a speak-easy feel. It opened to a darker, wider room, filled with buzzing people in suits, dresses and high heels. It could be 5 p.m. or 5 a.m. No one would know.

Supper Club’s interior is just as dark as the exterior. Though, the darkness is perfect — just dark enough so that pictures don’t come out Instagram-perfect. The low lighting seems intentional, so that no one discovers the true magic unless they experience it for themselves.

In a secret location with no signage…so let’s tell everyone where it’s located

I guess that’s one way to try and keep the undesirables away. At least for a little while.

I’m pretty sure this whole thread violates the first rule about Supper Club…

On the menu the side items are listed as “side pieces “ and steak toppings are “arm candy”
I don’t see this place making it, but who knows

Whole thing seems corny and pretentious. I bet the place was filled with invigorating conversation about that time I was there when we caused an earthquake in TS while watching Garth Brooks.

Has this place been accused of fostering white supremacy yet? Seems like it won't be long before that starts flying around.

This is great. I need a discrete but classy place to take my mistress. Somewhere I won’t get seen, or if seen, ratted out by the hoi-poloi.

This place may be racist. Can’t tell.

I want to try to go there. The grilled cheese dumplings look neat. And the bar seems well done.
