Luring out New Yorkers, who love the night life, Zagat's held an  extravaganza Thursday night at Crash Mansion in New York at Bowery and Spring Streets.  Bartenders were slinging Zagatini’s – a creation with a vodka which involved ginger-ale or seven-up, which sounded harmless enough but packed a wallop.  Yummy trays of pig-in-a-blankets, fried mozzarella sticks and other goodies were floated through the packed crowd that came to party! 

DJ Nappy was playing classic sounds and the standout band of the night was The Pimps of Joytown, who brought the funk and had the crowd rocking in true downtown style. 

A walk through the crowd inevitably involved eavesdropping on foodie conversations, favorite bands and the best lounges.  New Yorkers love to party, so it was a smart move by Zagat’s to get the party started.  If you missed the party not worries you can go to the Zagat’s Facebook http://www.facebook.com/#/Zagat?ref=ts
