Shake your Buddha

Posted By on Thu, Sep 3, 2009 at 2:58 PM

Dharma Lounge opened its doors yesterday to friends and family and will open its doors to extended family and acquaintances (as in the public) this weekend.

Dharma is not your typical lounge with a dance floor (and bamboo lined patio) — it is nightlife enlightened, a place of Zen. The kind of place where you can find inner peace … and get drunk (and with Zen green tea liquor even).

Yesterday, a Buddhist Monk blessed the venue … and the giant Buddhist statue above the bar that is blessing the booze, which is incredibly inexpensive might I add.

Not only can you shake your Buddha on the dance floor, but Dharma will offer free yoga classes at 1 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays , making it the only bar that offers both alcohol and detox. And you can also find peace in the fact that Dharma is non-smoking.

Dharma is located near Apostrophe Lounge — between Pop Life at Apostrophe, Media Night at the Gin Mill, the Common Market always being busy, and Dharma’s opening, South End was more busy and bumping than Uptown.

Dharma is owned by one of the old managers of The Forum … speaking of The Forum, they’re having a tribute to DJ AM which will feature highlights of when he played their 1 year anniversary party.

Namaste.
