Do you have ANY idea how much we hate to report on things that people are already talking about? A lot. But hey! sometimes things move faster than our asses and all we can do is hope we’re not too late on the bandwagon. Anyhow…
If you work out at
World Class Fitness Academy and picked up a strategically placed brochure, if you own a cool club and are worried about competition, and/or if you don’t usually miss a beat of this city’s rhythm, then you’re already talking about Embryo, right? (say “yes” and play along now.)
A few good years ahead of its time, Embryo manages to place Bucharest on the map inside the “World’s coolest clubs guide” (if there is such a guide, that is). The vibe is as follows: “US and Europe Fashion Week meets the Genesis and Evolution Room at the Museum of Natural History”.
Fabulous décor replicating the live tissue surrounding a budding living creature, futuristic design (Philippe Starck might want to take some notes, especially when it comes to the big couch made out of leather molecules scrunched up on the wall). The music is varied and not insanely loud and aggressive, the crowd very cosmopolitan and the seating areas could please even the most daring of you.
The corridors could be tight but the bright side is that most people are happy to feel like having sex while standing up when they move from cell A to cell B.
What’s completely ubercool about Embryo is the lighting: while the colors keep changing as the night progresses, the club remains set on a white background. So you can actually see through shirts, watch your partner’s lips move as he/she speaks (or whatever), and fortunately or not, you will remain in the spotlight no matter how hard you try to hide.
We haven’t tried the food yet, but we’re actually happy we didn’t start to eat there: the prices are an international threat to anyone’s bank account and, just like with any precious thing, you don’t want to throw yourself at it.
So just have their great Mai Tai, or Evian water, or even a 120,000 ROL Coke. You’ll be safe though insanely excited as you push your limits and see the light.
