dance, dance

For the most part, the clubs in Quebec aren't too much different than the ones I have gone to around RI. There is one that I have discovered that is way different from all the rest I've been to. It is called Le Palace. Now, the only downside, besides being a bit more expensive than the average clubs around the Old City, is the location. It isn't too easy to get to. You'll either have to get a taxi (which I recommend if you have a few people going, it ends up being about $5 per person) or take the bus (which can get confusing because you have to transfer buses in the process).

Now, when I say expensive, it is only because the night ends up costing a bit of money, but it isn't extraordinarily expensive. I have been twice. The first time there was a $10 cover charge and the second time there was a $5.50 charge. They were both on different nights and I can't remember what night was what. Both times there was an open bar until a certain time. (as to be expected, they drinks are a bit watered down, but if you get beer, it's a great deal since you get the beers bottled and there is no way for them to be any weaker.) Also, there is a coat check available(for $2.50)

The inside is HUGE. Besides it being a dance club, you can also play slot machines and pool. There are two floors. The main floor holds the dance floor as well as the casino part of it, the pool tables, and most of the bars. Upstairs there were a few more mini bars. Connecting the upstairs were these bridges that over looked the first floor, where you could dance or just stand and watch everyone. The ambiance is very upscale. The main feature is a sign with the name of the place that takes up about 10 ft of the wall with a waterfall that pours in front of it. I tried to take photos, but it wasn't allowed.

This place is definitely worth checking out if you get the chance and feel adventurous enough to explore outside of the Old City. But also, be prepared to stand out side for a bit. Each time the line has been a decent size, and in the winter, it's awful!
