Ethyl's Bar & Restaurant

Where To Break Up With Someone, If You Really Can’t Do It At Your Apartment - New York - The Infatuation

"Ethyl’s is a semi-divey bar on the UES with red vinyl bar stools, a bunch of 1970s memorabilia, and a stage in the back where there’s sometimes burlesque. So when you come here with your significant other, they’ll probably say something like, “Wow, what a cool place.” And you can respond with, “Yes, it is a cool place. Actually, I was hoping we could talk.” Get seats in the back, order some fries, and leave them in the middle of your table so they can function as a sort of security blanket throughout your rollercoaster of a conversation (if rollercoasters started out slow, then got sad and passive aggressive)." - bryan kim
