We could try to scare you away from the Cedar Hotel. We could tell you the host has arms bigger than our legs. Or that we threw down $14 for a 24-ounce "keepsake" cocktail that came in a plastic cup we most certainly did not want to keep. Or that the sliders and burgers were nothing we'd ever sign our name to. But the people-watching is so damn mesmerizing we might just be back ourselves.
