Call these evenings the lushest bar in town for adults 21 and over. Music and dancing. Enjoy a signature drink from cash bars with alcoholic and non-alcoholic options available, as well as delicious bites from one of our pop-up bars.
Today media and influencers find a serving table attractively set with food and drink, and staff ready to assist.
There is street style corn, conveniently portioned up and ready to be enjoyed.
Would you perhaps prefer a roasted portobello mushroom cap with red mole, beautifully garnished.
A fruit cup with spears of pineapple, mango, watermelon, cucumber
and a dollop of dipping sauce at the bottom of the cup.
There are some tables and chairs for those who want to sit while enjoying their food.
A centerpiece of vivid bromeliads and a pot with a miniature orchid.
