I would say New York.
Theres more to do, and I feel less committed to the plan.
In LA, it can feel like youre stuck to a restaurant.

I actually like dinner for a first date.
Because even if it sucks you could always wrap it up within a few minutes.

I love Dante in LA, or Chez Margaux in NYC.
I love the Polo Lounge or Polo Bar.
Im kind of an old lady with the spots I like to go to.

Im a big tequila girl.
It depends on my mood.
Im even known to have a little drink while Im getting ready for the date.
Ill do chardonnay or a spicy skinny margarita to get the juices flowing.
Whats in a Brooks Nader martini?
Extra cold, extra dirty vodka martini with blue cheese olives.
Everybody says I like swamp water because the color should be murky.
Whats your feel-good remedy after a night out?
Youre an older sister.
What advice do you give your siblings for navigating the dating scene?
Speaking of yourDWTSera, taking on that role is such an expression of confidence.

Youre in such an intimate setting with your dance partner six hours a day, seven days a week.
You rely on this person to support you not only physically but mentally as well.
You cant be too cool for school.
Similar to a dating adventure.
