Sexual Chocolate: Atlanta's "Sweet Relief"

It's not what it sounds like ... is it?
Without a doubt, the debut "Celebrity Chocolate Night" this Friday at the Four Seasons Hotel in Midtown will be a first-class affair. But it won't have any overt, pre-Valentine's, whacka-whacka-bow-bow connutations...will it?


YOUTUBE: 'Sexual Chocolate!'

Atlanta Braves pitcher Tim Hudson (easy, ladies) will host this 9-to-midnight affair; sharing his personal favorite mocha recipe and encouraging guests to sample sweet treats provided by the 4's more "seasoned" staff. (The $20 fee includes valet parking.)

"Celebrity Chocolate Night" is planned as a weekly event with a new master (or mistress) of ceremonies each time. Go to info@msquaredpr.com for more details.

DEDICATED TO THE ONE I LUV... If you've got novel and affordable ideas for cheering up your Sweetie/Boo/Snookums (whatever) this Valentine's Day, share them in the comment space below this post. The best will be highlighted soon at ESS...

SHORT NOTICE: ATLANTA PARTIES WITH A PURPOSE

Haven't found time to go out and see "The Wrestler"?



Why not opt for the next best thing, when prestige labels like Dallas Austin's Rowdy Clothing, Mizzae and Poppy Sam go on sale for up to ninety (count 'em 90) percent off Jan 30-31 at the Intown Boutique Warehouse (280 Elizabeth Street, 30307) across from Fritti in Inman Park?
Bill Hallman, Market, Blue Sky and Demure are among the shops participating in the sell-off that runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. both days. Hit up cwpr.com for details .... (Photo: rowdyclothing.com)

WISHING ON A STAR
Don't let the dire parking scenario stop you from attending the Wednesday, Sept. 28 "Style Star" soiree (7-10 p.m.) at Grant Park's NV-U boutique (465 Boulevard, 30312). This shop's steadily drawn a VIP list of clients seeking styles as unique as Atlanta has to offer. Drinks, eats and a short, savory "runway" presentation. For details: 770-990-3997.




It's not what you think...is it?

MIXED MESSAGE: Bureau, the new destination for downtown hipsters presents "Mixed Media" this Wednesday (Jan. 28, 7:30) to introduce the art of TindelMichi, debut culinary delights by chef Shaun Doty and raise memorial funds for the slain Standard barkeep John Henderson. It should be one stoic and celebratory occasion.

CHOP SHOP

If "going Native" is more your speed, there's always Insider Night at Midtown's Beleza lounge, where jewelry and accessories by Joxasa designer John Sanders will be showcased runway style along with portraits by esteemed photographer Lou Freeman Thursday, Jan. 29 (9-until). E-mail ullio@mindspring.com for details or call 678-904-4582 (Photo (above left: Lou Freeman)...

If you're Friday night dance card's already full, don't forget the birthday party for Atlanta's self-proclaimed "King of Clubs", Pablo Henderson, at Midtown's Bar at Trois (14th Street). No doubt the event will encompass all three levels of the luxuriant club, and don't even ask how late it will last.
