[DANCE/DRINK/MUSIC] What's that? What am I drinking? It's a "Diablo" Martini. They call it that 'cause it gives you a

Devil

 of a good time. Okay, maybe Will Ferrell came up with the "Diablo Martini" and maybe no one actually serves such a drink, but Mondays do have a new attraction. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "This chick is crazy! I hate everything about Mondays!" But, now there is something to look forward to. At Bamboo Chi, every Monday is a "Martini Monday." Not only are there Martini specials, you can get dance lessons, too.  Dancing and boozing go together so well. Especially if you're a white male, HA! At 6:30, Rita O'Connor, who is a Dance Professional, and her husband Brian, give complimentary dance lessons to Sinatra-style music. This includes Foxtrots, Soft Swings, Rumbas and more. If you just want to watch, there are plenty of tables and the cushy couches and chairs a little further away from the dance floor. The Martinis are $3 less than regular price. I tried the "Bambootini," which is Strawberry Vodka mixed with Horchata. It was creamy and delicious. I tasted my companion's "Sleepless in Seattle" and it was like a spiked Frappuccino, yum! A night of dancing and drinking invigorates the soul… and the libido. Speaking of which, the staff was totally cute. For reservations, call 879-4777. [HEIDI KING]
