Rocky From New York

myspot-rocky-2007-05-03-300x125.jpg

Name: Rocky aka Lovely
Reppin': The Bronx, New York
Favortie Spot: Mobay on 125th Street. Though I live in Tampa, Florida now, I am home in New York City at least once a month. (I'm from the Bronx!!! Lol.) One of my favorite spots to hang with my girls is Mobay on 125th street in Harlem. The drinks are excellent, the live performances make for a perfect lounge feel, and the food is simple, yet exquisite. It’s the perfect after work spot to chill. It’s the perfect place for a single chick like me to unwind and get her swerve on.
