Finally a bar for wall street types

Plenty of restaurants have tried to court finance types by “speaking their language” — take Maloney & Porcelli’s expense-report generator and Smith & Wollensky’s stocks-for-steak offer. But I don't think anywhere has gone as far as this. A couple of suits ,one of them a former trader at Deutsche Bank and stock broker at Prime Charter LTD, and the other an econ major who has lately been a GM at some restaurants around Murray Hill, will open a stock exchange–themed lounge called Exchange Bar & Grill in Gramercy. The gimmick: The prices of drinks and bar food will fluctuate in 25-cent increments according to demand — meaning your wings could be $2 to $3 cheaper or more expensive depending on who else is ordering them. So it’s like the exchange floor but with drunk chicks! Will the place manage to lure away Stern school’s brightest from Tonic East? Ladies if your looking for the wall street type head on over to Gramercy, at end of your meal George Bush shows up and pays your bill then adds it to your taxes.
