I recently started seeing someone new, and it just so happens he loves a good old off-the-beaten-path adventure as much as I do. Most of our dates thus far have been about seven hours long, and they have ALL involved something totally random or abnormal. So when he suggested that we check out a banya one night, being the dependable spa-girl I am, I called up my buddy Dmitri, owner at the Russian & Turkish Bathhouse in the East Village, and the date was made.
