Arlecchino

This week although I've been busy preparing all the wonderful changes and additions we've got coming I did take the time out (finally) to check out Arlecchino (meaning harlequin), the new Italian ice cream parlour on Cantonments road (Oxford street), Osu. Loved the ice cream and the olive pastry was delish too. Looking forward to trying some of their other sweet treats.

Check them out when you get the chance..

The Duplex

This Wednesday try out Duplex in Osu. It's a great bar and lounge located next to Simbins furniture.  You'll like it.  Nice and relaxed.  Just what you need for a quiet drink.

A weekend to remember

Last weekend was definitely worth all the work thanks to Mike O & Eugene of Xclusive Vista Entertainment. True to their word they gave us a show like no other. I HEART ACCRA would like to take this opportunity to congratulate them on the outstanding success of the show which was superbly pulled off even with all the glitches and problems they faced.

Well done guys more grease to your elbows!

On Saturday night one of the official sponsors for the show Hennessy held a Private Hennessy Party at Embar with the most delicious Hennessy cocktails ever! All I need to say is "Miami by night". All the drinks were on the house by kind courtesy of all the lovely people at Hennessy and EVERYONE had a great time.

The show on Sunday was even more spectacular than I imagined it would be. The local acts Scientific, Praye, 4x4, Asem, Skillions, Peer Pressure and all the others were fantastically well put together and Reggie blew us all away with his suit, words and sounds.

Miss Trinity was just what the guys needed to get them going and there was nothing but smiles from the three lucky guys picked to go on stage.

Omarion... Omarion was wonderful, he danced and he sang and the crowd went wild over and over and over again as he gave us all a no holds barred performance.  Ghana would like to show her appreciation to him for coming through on such short notice.  He was pretty impressed with how Ghana held it down on the dance floor too (see pics for more details on that).

Fat Joe gave an un-miss-able performance and played a few tricks on us all along the way.  He sincerely apologized for being unable to make it the day before due to ill health and disassociated himself and Xclusive Vista from the disappointment caused by Sean Kingstons failure to attend.  He went on to congratulate the boys on their work and guarantee Accra that this was only the beginning and there would be only bigger and better shows from XVE.

I HEART ACCRA is proud to have been associated with The State of the Republic concert and would like to once again congratulate Mike & Eugene on a job well done.

Pics coming soon.
