6/23/2008 Update:
I’m sure you might have noticed that Lana Lounge had been “marketing” their new Cuban/American menu over the past few weeks. They’ve been handing out free samples of plantains, sandwiches and empanadas. I had a taste of their Cuban Sandwich a week or two ago, and have to say it was quite tasty!
Has any actual Hoboken resident gone there to actually sit down and have a meal yet?
Here’s the latest Lana Menu in case you’d like to peruse it.
8/28/2007 Update:
About three weeks ago, Lana finally made the transformation into a combination lounge/restaurant.
Starting off initially with just sushi, they hope to open up their kitchen within a few weeks and begin offering Cuban cuisine as well. Looks pretty nice inside. Has anyone tried the Sushi yet?
While I haven’t been to this club in a long time since it was River Street, has anyone braved the weekend crowds to check the club scene out?

You have to rent the movie. The main character trains with an imaginary Bruce Lee type invisible mentor he made up in his head.

Gymkata:

HE USES THE TOWN SINK AS A POMMEL HORSE.
“The skill of gymastics, the kill of karate”.
If anyone needs me, I’ll be out back gouging out my own eyes.

Oh god, that was terrible. I saw that when I was young, and thought it was great. Now the fight choreography just looks so weak.
Sometimes it’s better left in your memory. I’ve gone back and watched movies, especially F/X heavy and fight flicks, and they all look terrible.
2001 Space Odyssey, made in 1968 STILL holds up even today.
Gymkata… *snort* there are no words.

Let’s not forget Raiders of the Lost Ark was an eighties flick … and don’t lie you guys all watch The Breakfast Club everytime it’s on USA…
Some seminal bands in the eighties such as Husker Du, Soul Asylum, the Flaming Lips, and the Descendants were overlooked as well. Most of the mainstream might have been fluff, but there were quite a fewgood underground ventures going on.

There was a thread about water shortage – to which I would suggest the solution found in the 1980’s movie, “DUNE”, in which the spice was life and everyone wore body suits in the desert planet wherein the body suits recaimed the water loss from your body and fed it back to you. That was cool.

Gotta judge it in that time period. Inspirational and really connected. To this day, I can remember relating to the imaginary Bruce Lee type invisible mentor. I did the same thing (trained from 7 yrs old to 18 yrs old). So I was the same age as the star. Hit a chord with me.
Gymkata had high production value for the 80’s, but it was ridiculous that a pommel horse just happened to be in the middle of town surrounded by a bunch of mutants waiting their turn to get scissor kicked. Upon further reflection, perhaps this was the worse.

Katie-
Kudos to you for making the effort to at least check the place out. Though undoubtedly you were were also checked out in the process (how ya doin’). Lana (again Anal backwards) is too much of a socialogy lab to let the article about it fall off the Hoboken 411 map.
NJguido.com is one of the best but here is another possible source for the patronage of the place:
