Most are in the Dupont area, restaurants that would turn into clubs after 9ish

Science Club
Cafe Citron
Bamboleo
Heritage of India

Cafe citron is gone!?! Best Cuban corn meal empanadas ever.

I worked at a bunch of these places and I am probably responsible for many of your hangovers, bad decisions because you were drunk and if any of these decisions resulted in kids well .........

I've never eaten there but just went out dancing there a month or so ago, so not gone. (And yes, this is kind of funny as I hadn't been since my 20s either).
