The Shrine Bar Restaurant is all kinds of fun. \u00a0Literally, with its World Music Venue in Harlem you can expect to hear a wide variety of different music every week. \u00a0I was there recently with friends just passing through (not for a particular event), and was happy to meet Francois Maheux, the man responsible for Bookings and \u00a0Promotions. \u00a0We were discussing Harlem, Apollo Theater and just music in general and how vital live music is to Harlem and the history of Harlem. \u00a0There are many great spots to hear music in Harlem and Shrine is no exception. \u00a0It is the perfect size venue, roomy but not too big with a comfortable, inviting and festive interior. \u00a0I especially enjoy that you can hear jazz, hip hop, funk, world, reggae, Latin, rap, blues rock on any given night as they keep it interesting, current and on the pulse. \u00a0Here is a list of upcoming events you can see at Shrine Bar Restaurant\/World Music Venue<\/a>. \u00a0Recently friend to our blog, Harlem born and raised “John O” of Tha Gecko Brothas<\/a>, perfromed there and I’m sure that they will return over the summer months. \u00a0It is worth passing through if you have not been there yet to check out their food and drinks MENU<\/a>. \u00a0Every once in a while there is a cover for special events like an AIDS benefit, or a fundraiser where customers are more than happy to contribute. \u00a0The Shrine has great drinks if you like margaritas and pina coladas. \u00a0My friend recommended the pina colada (with a splash of grand \u00a0marnier on top) which was very good especially with a side order of wings. \u00a0You cannot go wrong with that combo. \u00a0Next time I would like to sit in their outdoor seating and try their Fela Burger<\/em> and also their Afro Chicken<\/em> which both looked good. \u00a0But then definitely come back inside to enjoy some great live music!
\n(Make sure you check out The Shrine Sunday Jazz Jam Session<\/em> which is each and every Sunday)<\/p>\n

*Stay tuned as HarlemCondoLife<\/span><\/a><\/span> will continue to keep you posted with events at the\u00a0Shrine<\/a>.<\/p>\n
