So here's the scoop:
I got in later in the evening, maybe 8:30 or 9 on a Wednesday night. $7 cover charge, reasonable enough, if you can ever consider a cover charge reasonable but whatever. I come in, place is kinda small and it looks like there maybe 10 girls and about as many patrons, maybe as many as 15.
Kind of physically small but layout is actually pretty good. Small bar directly in front of the entrance, bathrooms to the left, seating and stage to the right. Got myself a booth and settled in. A cute little redhead seems to be the only cocktail waitress working that night, but I'm a good tipper so she was at my table with a fresh old fashioned pretty frequently. I'd heard this place had great steak and I was craving some good Missourah beef, so I look at the menu and see it.
The Fat Clemenza. Oh my sweet child yes. 30 ounces of steak, bread, and two sides. Good lord have mercy on this innocent soul. I order it.
Not too long after a pretty girl comes up and introduces herself as Asia. She instantly becomes my companion for the rest of the evening and we spend more time hanging out and shooting the shit than anything else. We trade stories, muse on the adult entertainment business, stripper drama, and just have a good night.
My order comes up. Oh boy. This is gonna be fun. Asia looks at it and I can see her nearly drooling. I cut off a bite and feed her and it's clear she's in love with my meat. I take a bite and I'm in love with it too. Well seasoned, juicy, tender, well marbled. Prime shit right here. They say it's the best steak in Springfield, and I believe it.
I had a few shots from the girls going around in addition to my old fashioneds, and bought Asia some shots and a few vodka cranberries too. Apparently buying girls drinks pays their house fee so if you really wanna make some friends, there's a pro tip for ya. Oh, and freaking tip people too. Evidently everyone in Springfield is a cheapskate, or broke. In which case you have no business throwing your money at single moms and college students. These girls work hard and deserve your consideration ya mooks.
After a while I decide Asia deserves some compensation and we discuss rates. $25 a song, at any of several private booths. No vip or champagne room, or dances at the floor. Nice and simple, no pressure to upsell. We go to her favorite booth and Asia proceeds to rock my goddamned world harder than the Fat Clemenza. Hoo boy that girl got azz. Pity about the pasties but eh that's local ordinances for ya.
Afterward we go back to my table and proceed to just cuddle and hang out some more. One of the shot girls, Brenna I think, joins us. Sweet girl we keep chatting and just hang out, buying drinks and having a grand old time.
End of the night, I cash out my tab. That can't be right. My steak was about $35 or $40 and I totally lost track of how many drinks I'd had. Evidently only about $70 worth. I was expecting a bill easily approaching, or even over, $150 but no, $107. Heck yes my boys.
Now, is Centerfolds the best nudy bar in Springfield? Maybe, but I haven't been to any of the others so I'm not thr one to make that assessment. However, it is a darn fine classy establishment, and more than worthy of your week's wages.
Just remember to tip your girls, fer chrissakes! read more
