Says Joey:
I'm just wondering what *won't break the bank* really means, considering it sits on this block and will now be run by Bonanno.I liked being able to go to the Lancer and get a cheap drink while i was waiting for a table at Bones. I'll wait to pass judgement, but Lancer Lounge was super nice on the wallet.
Others aren't waiting to pass judgment, though. Read many more comments on the Bonannos's plans for Vesper Lounge here.
