Hooray for Hollywood (Florida) - 9-1-2009

IT’S JUST BEFORE midnight in downtown Hollywood -- Hollywood, Florida -- and the belly dancers are doing crazy things with their hips for the sidewalk diners outside Taverna Yiamas. Down Hollywood Boulevard, girls in way-too-short, way-too-low hot pants are cozying up to a group of Russian immigrants in front of Spice Resto-Lounge. Next door, outside PRL Euro Cafe, the Rasta crowd is sipping Polish beer and eating slices of takeout pizza from Mauro’s Pizza. I’m headed to the more sedate confines of the Sushi Blues Cafe to hear Bluesman Dave & Bonga La Roc Jr. while noshing on some Japanese drinking snacks called otsumami. Frankly, I had not anticipated such a wild scene here.
