The Post looks at the best places in the city to salsa. No Moore gives pre-party dance lessons on its Saturday night salsa night and Nell's has high quality music. On another dance note, the Post noted the Mayor's surprisingly good merengue (no, it's not salsa, but work with us, folks) dancing while on a trip to the Dominican Republic.
Gothamist has never salsa'd before, but we're not averse, just as long as we can say "seltzer" and "salsa" all night long. Still, we might need to take salsa lessons first, and NY magazine says Dance Manhattan and S.O.B.'s are the best.
