THE CULTURE PLATTER
THE QUARTER
In less than a year since it opened, the Quarter is already popular for those looking for an evening of live music or stand-up comedy with good food and drinks for company. Evocative of a 1950 ’s art deco jazz bar, Live at The Quarter, with its state-of-the-art acoustics, is the performance space that hosts performances ranging from tributes to jazz legends to live acts by artistes. In August, they have a tribute to Madonna by Top Storey, a evening of jazz with Loretta Holloway and Micheal Jackson's hits by Elena Friedrich. Soul food meets jazz sounds at the al fresco Dine at the Quarter, that serves a Louisiana Creole cuisine-inspired menu where you can look for classic dishes such as jambalaya and southern fried chicken and other specialties that are garnished with in-house grown herbs and edible flowers. If you’re looking for an evening with cheese and wine while it rains, opt for Drink at The Quarter, elegantly done up with upright chandeliers and beveled mirrors.
