Located at Zinc and 75th now sits
The Ritz - owned by Vanitas and Taltos Oberon - is a prohibition-era style speakeasy welcoming to all supernatural (so long as they're discreet). The Ritz' upstairs area doubles as the home of Haus Schiaraffa.
[CLICK HERE FOR DIRECTIONS].
Congratulations to the owners!
A converted Hausmann-style apartment building in the middle of a bustling commercial district, six stories high with a rooftop garden, carriage entrances, and a courtyard.
Through a hallway of mirrors is The Ritz mezzanine, a lounge bar and club with Prohibition-style interiors. Above the door is a sign visible only to the keen vampiric eye:
- Be discreet, clean up after yourself, dumpsters at the back, and don't be an idiot.
The way upstairs to the third floor and above has been blocked off by a free-standing sign announcing,
- Private Residence of Taltos Oberon, Vanitas, and the Haus Schiaraffa

Thank you all very much for the well wishes and your support! The Ritz would not be half as successful without the support of our patrons.
As such, we're offering free drinks at The Ritz from today to January 18. Just say "Zinc and Zestless" to Arun, Cameron, or Helga at the bar.
(Thank you very much to the Matsudas for the idea!)
Here's to you, RavenBlack City. Cheers.

Soon! We're working tirelessly to have Club Ukiyo officially certified with the city and for our venue to see similar success as The Ritz. A future article and when the time comes, only one thing will matter: prepare the dipping sauce.
