"Next to Swing 46 is Don’t Tell Mama. This Hell’s Kitchen bar, named after the song Sally Bowles sings at the Kit Kat Club in the Broadway show, Cabaret, has an entire night’s worth of experiences under one roof — a piano bar, restaurant, and two cabaret rooms — centrally located on Times Square’s restaurant row. It’s the place to grab an espresso martini before (or after) a Broadway show." - Lee Musho
