Hi, my name is LiuTian. I am 100% Chinese, but I LOVE Latin dancing, especially Salsa and Bachata. I have tried to look through my review contributions and see what I like to share the most. After looking them, I realized I have shared a lot of food pictures and reviewed quite many restaurants. However, that’s not it, I saw a pattern- I review many restaurants surrounding dance studios or dance socials. Needless to say, I have of course reviewed the dance spots. I hope that others would be able to see my reviews/personal experience, and decide if to experience things themselves, either food or dancing. I hope that my reviews can bring people a good time: enjoying good food, a drink, or sharing the joy of dancing with their friends
Where I started my Salsa Journey *** Nieves Latin Dance Studio*** 670 Grand Street Brooklyn, NY 11211

Bahia Salvadoran - 690 Grand Street Brooklyn, NY 11211
My friends and I like to go there either before dance practice or after it. Sopa de res is our favorite- the family style make us feel so welcoming and relaxing after dancing.
- Sage - Thai Restaurant 299-301 Graham Ave Brooklyn, NY 11211
My dance partner for student team performance went to Sage for dinner. We were able to connect in this more intimate atmosphere and get to know each other more, so we can work on our chemistry for our dancing ( I have many more to share around Nieves. These are the two that I wanted to share the most)
I have been to many other dance studios for workshop and classes. Another one is called Salsa Salsa- 55 4th Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217
Restaurants nearby -
my number 1 favorite is Yayo’s- 6 5th Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11217
This is a Dominican restaurant. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. That’s not all. On Thursday night, they have their dance social collaboration with Salsa Salsa dance studio in the basement; one room for Salsa; one room for Bachata. The DJ has great music playlist. My friends and I usually go for the food upstairs then head down to dance.
Of course, I can go on and on about my love for food and dancing. I hope you see that as well and I hope people see my reviews helpful and could inspire them to try out something new whether it’s food or dancing #Danceon
