The Mercer Hotel makes an ideal pitstop for tired afternoon shoppers and early evening cocktailers. The front bar has leather banquette seating and warm candlelight. The library lobby--open to anyone, formerly exclusive to hotel guests only--is one plush cushioned couch after another. It's a place where you sit down and say "ahhhhh". We--the cocktailers--stopped in for a drink before dinner at Emilio Ballato's. I ordered the raspberry-lychee bellini which was surprisingly not over the top sweet-just right. Cheese plate was a work of art. The goat cheese was super light and almost whipped to perfection.
Mercer and Prince (great celeb sighting too: we have seen Emma Thompson, Brooke Shields and DJ AM-rip)
