Cold Never Looked So Hot: London: Ice Bar

On certain nights out in London, New York or LA you might think that hell has already frozen over all of the from bad attitudes, icy stares and botoxed bodies that seem to pervade the more happening drinking dens. And you may well be right. Sometimes you might just want to cocoon yourself in an igloo to get away from it all and drink yourself into a stooper. Thankfully, some crazy Swedes from Lapland who love Abba and hate frigid women agree. And they have brought their meat locker to London. From the makers of the Ice Hotel comes the Absolute Ice Bar in London's Heddon Street. Set to go icemaker on October 1st the bar will allow you book 45 minute timeslots where you will give you parkas (and we would hope J. Medel for the ladies) and send you into the cooler. We have a feeling that arctic temperatures alone will dissuade all but the most vivacious, lively and fit arctic women to attend the party.
