All
preparations have been completed as two intimate performances with living
legend Pape Cheikh, an international musician from Senegal and also the world
leading African acoustic folk group will entertain music lovers tonight with
music from their repetoire.
A
series of shows have been lined up to whet the appetite of music lovers with
only 125 privileged audience allowed at each show.
The
concerts are being organised by ENVY, The Clubhouse as part of promoting their
activities in the country.
Pape
Cheikh is expected to perform today Friday 28 July to entertain music lovers
and on 29 July, the same concert will be repeated.
He
will perform both concerts at ENVY, The Clubhouse 134, Fajara starting at 8pm.
The
Point Entertainment and Lifestyle was informed that the events will be one of a
kind in the country, quoting Aziz Willian, the general manager of Envy, The
Clubhouse.
He
said gold tables costs D20,000, individual D700 and VIP D2000.
According
to Aziz, the complex comprises three parts: which is Envy The clubhouse which
is exclusively for members and conference attendees and it provides a safe
haven for the well connected and well to do.
He
said within the complex is Utopia restaurant which is open to the public for
fine dining with a touch of Madness, adding that it also comprises a bureau
which is well manned to deal with all membership, booking and other enquiries.
Mr
Willian stressed that Envy has over the years demonstrated its penchant for
uniqueness in the industry, culminating in more than a half century of
hospitality experience, adding that Envy is where the Power Brokers and
Professionals can Relax, Indulge in Fine Wining and Dining, enjoy Global
Standard Music and Quality Late night Entertainment.
With
two international entertainment moguls at the helm of affairs at this
state-of-the-art venture, and a hand-picked female management team, Envy the
Clubhouse Complex has settled easily into its title as Gambia’s most exclusive
venue.
Dubbed,
the home away from home of Gambia’s Elite, it is certainly living up to its
lofty expectations and set to wow even more as Live music offerings from
SeneGambia’s most revered artistes queue up to play to audiences limited to
only 100 lucky souls.
Its
marriage of Afro-Asian Michelin star-standard food from Utopia Restaurant and
Silver-Service trained staff, with world class entertainment reserved for
members of the ultra-modern Clubhouse – is entirely unique to The Gambia, and
never fails to impress.
Dilating
on the Utopia restaurant, Aziz Willain told Point Entertainment and Lifestyle
that the guest experience is everything at the Complex, so at Utopia
Restaurant, imported Executive Chef Shahid Ansari brings creative flair to his
creations: Flavours of Pan Asia, tempered
with Haddy Ansari’s archetypal African Dishes, and the sneaky addition of
wood-fired Pizzeria adding delicious Italian and other Continental goodies to
the permanent menu.
What’s
on offer changes monthly with seasonal and imported items, ensuring that
everyone will find something they will keep coming back for- be it the oven
seared British Lamb chops, Leban-inspired Wraps, Haddy’s insanely popular
Benachin ( Jollof Rice and Gambia’s Famed National Dish) or Domoda (Traditional
Fresh Peanut-Butter Stew), freshly caught Seafood, Vegan Medleys, or delicious
Italian Calzones or Pizzas. It’s only yours for the asking - anything off the
menu - and the culinary team will assist you.
The
best of world food, presented with a touch of Madness, as their motto declares,
until the last member upstairs is satiated.
He
said by day, a high functioning and modern Corporate space is available where
the Private, Public and Tertiary sector host Conferences and Meetings; that
will pack a Real Corporate Punch.
They
offer catering (ranging from Bespoke Menu options, Silver Service or Buffets
and Grills) and other hosting services as well as technical, logistic and
planning support on request, all from their dedicated staff.
Members
can expect anything from Live Bands, Cultural Performers, Key Sporting Events,
Themed Evenings, Networking Events, Cultural Celebrations, Bi-Monthly Private
Concerts and Personal appearances from Global Artists.
