Mardi Gras Manhattan? Or lacking that...

Greetings!

I'm in Manhattan on Super Tuesday night - looking for something close to Mardi Gras or Cajun. Midtown area good; but will cab/subway further afield.

Lacking that - anyone know where the local pols (Democrats) will be drinking and watching the results of Super Tuesday?

Thanks - Kristene

      I heard Tracks Bar & Grill will be having Mardi Gras festivities (food and drink specials, etc.) plus they'll have live music. But it's in Penn Station ... don't know if that's what you're looking for.

          Delta Grill, on the corner of 9th Av. & 48th St., serves Cajun and Creole cuisine. Probably be a zoo tomorrow evening.

          I don't drink, but I've heard that the "Drinking Liberally" crowd meets at Rudy's Bar & Grill, on 9th Av., b/t 44th & 45th Sts.
