Clique Supper Club & Lounge Bar - Colombo Sri Lanka
By definition, ‘CLIQUE’ refers to a small group of people with shared influences, who spend time
together and do not readily allow others to join them. Drawing from the positive connotation of this
definition, the management at CLIQUE created a unique definition of this word to apply to all attributes
of CLIQUE, from its highly selective and exclusive clientele, to its interior decor elements, style, quality of
food and music. CLIQUE aims to provide connoisseurs with a unique and memorable experience through
a combination of gastronomic and sensorial delights.
The menu will continue the Clique style of Eurasian modernist cuisine, featuring many signature dishes
from their introductory menu, including sous-vide steaks, Japanese favourites & Clique Rice, as well as
new dishes to ignite your senses such as mouth-watering 3-tiered seafood platters and BBQ spare ribs.
Currently at No.1 out of 290 Restaurants in Colombo on Trip Advisor, Clique is a culinary destination for
foodies and wine lovers and the creative force behind our cuisine is our team of culinary enthusiasts led
by our Executive Chef Kumar and Japanese Chef Chamila.
Under Chef Kumar and Chamila’s direction, they have taken fusion cuisine to a new level being the
first restaurant in the city, in introducing Steak’n’Sushi as the perfect choice for our patrons. Most
chefs are fortunate to have had exciting stints in exotic, faraway places and Chef Rajendra Prem Kumar
is certainly one of them. Specializing in sous-vide steaks in South Africa, winning the Chef Challenge
Trophy at the Novotel Bangkok, fond experiences with former President of United States Bill Clinton at
the ITT Hawaii, academic achievements in New Zealand and many travels across the Middle East Chef
Kumar has experienced fusion at its best. Chef Kumar’s Fusion menu is supported by a touch of new-age
Japanese, which has been compiled by Chef Chamila, who has worked at Nobu, Dubai in the past ten
years. Chef Chamila's creativity and skill for sourcing the best ingredients and fresh seafood has brought
Clique praise with its many favourite dishes ranging from Dragon Rolls, Karage to Teriyaki Duck.
Located at the Colombo Pharmacy Building in Union Place, Clique is spread over two floors. The space
is demarcated into a main restaurant area featuring a private walk-in elevator, club lounge bar, and
the Boardroom (a private dining area) located on the lower floor. CLIQUE also offers a combination of
canapés, tapas, or a set menu to try out. Situated in the heart of Colombo, with a breath taking view
of Town Hall, Clique Supper Club provides early to late night dining which combines soul, tradition,
modernism and glamour.
The Boardroom is a 1,200 Square foot private space designed in the style of a glamorous living room
featuring a dining area and a lounge. It will be perfect for intimate gatherings for both business and
private functions. The room carries on the design theme of the main space and features custom-made
wallpaper and a continuation of our design philosophy for the space: techy Baroque. The boardroom
can be hired out with a minimum spend of Rs. 25,000. The room layout specifications can be customized
as per your preferences.
The Club Lounge is adjacent to the Supper Club and is described as Techy Baroque InDesign. Designed
in-house, it features Cantaloupe signatures such as custom-made wallpaper, brightly coloured
chandeliers, silver and pink patent leather sofas and new-age LED lighting. The (PG) Playground Lounge
is a VIP room for our guests who prefer privacy and yet do not want to be too far away from the party.
Midweek Live Sessions with Tanuja backed by Suren, Marlon and Duleep - starting your Wednesday
night at 9:00 PM in the lounge and effortlessly covering genres such as Blues, Jazz, World Music and Neo
Soul. Thursdays come alive with the Slipping Chairs - a popular cover band playing contemporary rock
from 9:00 PM onwards.

Yma Sumac (/ˈiːmə ˈsuːmæk/; September 13, 1922, or September 10, 1923 – November 1, 2008), also called Yma Súmac, was a Peruvian soprano. In the 1950s, she was one of the most famous proponents of exotica music.
Sumac became an international success based on her extreme vocal range, which was said to be well over five octaves at the peak of her singing career.
Sumac recorded an extraordinarily wide vocal range of 5 octaves, 3 notes and a semitone ranging from E2 to B♭7 (approximately 107 Hz to 3.7 kHz). In one live recording of Chuncho, she sings a range of over four and a half octaves, from B2 to F♯7. She was able to sing notes in the low baritone register as well as notes above the range of an ordinary soprano and notes in the whistle register. Both low and high extremes can be heard in the song Chuncho (The Forest Creatures) (1953). She was also apparently able to sing in an eerie double voice.
In 1954, classical composer Virgil Thomson described Sumac's voice as very low and warm, very high and birdlike, noting that her range is very close to five octaves, but is in no way inhuman or outlandish in sound. In 2012, audio recording restoration expert John H. Haley favorably compared Súmac's tone to opera singers Isabella Colbran, Maria Malibran, and Pauline Viardot. He described Súmac's voice as not having the bright penetrating peal of a true coloratura soprano, but having in its place an alluring sweet darkness...virtually unique in our time.
She was born on either September 13, 1922, or September 10, 1923, most likely in Callao, a seacoast city in Peru; but according to herself in Ichocán, in an indian village. Her parents were Sixto Chávarri and Emilia Castillo. Her father was born in Cajamarca and her mother was born in Pallasca. Stories published in the 1950s claimed that she was an Incan princess, directly descended from Atahualpa. The government of Peru in 1946 formally supported her claim to be descended from Atahualpa, the last Incan emperor.
Chávarri adopted the stage name of Imma Sumack (also spelled Ymma Sumack and Ima Sumack) before she left South America to go to the United States. The stage name was based on her mother's name, which was derived from Ima Shumaq, Quechua for how beautiful! although in interviews she claimed it meant beautiful flower or beautiful girl.
Yma Sumac first appeared on radio in 1942. She recorded at least 18 tracks of Peruvian folk songs in Argentina in 1943. These early recordings for the Odeon label featured Moisés Vivanco's group, Compañía Peruana de Arte, a group of 46 Indian dancers, singers, and musicians.
She married composer and best friend Moises Vivanco on June 6, 1942. She had a son, Charles, in 1949. In 1946, Sumac and Vivanco moved to New York City, where they performed as the Inka Taky Trio, Sumac singing soprano, Vivanco on guitar, and her cousin Cholita Rivero singing contralto and dancing. She was signed by Capitol Records in 1950, at which time her stage name became Yma Súmac. Her first album, Voice of the Xtabay, launched a period of fame that included performances at the Hollywood Bowl and Carnegie Hall.
In 1950 she made her first tour to Europe and Africa, and debuted at the Royal Albert Hall in London and the Royal Festival Hall before the Queen. She presented more than 80 concerts in London alone and 16 concerts in Paris. A second tour took her to travel to the Far East: Persia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Burma, Thailand, Sumatra, the Philippines, and Australia. Her fame in countries like Greece, Israel and Russia made her change her two weeks stay to six months offering fabulous concerts. During the 1950s, Sumac produced a series of lounge music recordings featuring Hollywood-style versions of Incan and South American folk songs, working with the likes of Les Baxter and Billy May. The combination of her extraordinary voice, exotic looks, and stage personality made her a hit with American audiences. Súmac appeared in a Broadway musical, Flahooley, in 1951, as a foreign princess who brings Aladdin's lamp to an American toy factory to have it repaired. The show's score was by Sammy Fain and E. Y. Yip Harburg, but Súmac's three numbers were the work of Vivanco with one co-written by Vivanco and Fain.

The world's coziest bars revealed From an English inn to a New York lobby, inside the best watering
The world's coziest bars revealed: From an English inn to a New York lobby, inside the best watering holes for escaping the winter chill
MailOnline Travel has rounded up some of the best places in the world to while away the winter
A Copenhagen town house, London library bar and Cotswolds pub all feature in the global round up
Crackling log fires and spicy mulled wine served at a cosy bolthole, a world away from the biting chill outside - winter has its timeless perks.
Fans of the season can appreciate the joy of holing up in a snug country pub, lingering at a Michelin-star inn or entering a fantasy library-style bar on a blustery afternoon.
From a rural pub in Yorkshire to a boutique lobby in New York, MailOnline Travel has rounded up some of the best places in the world to while away the winter.
Scarfe's Bar at Rosewood Hotel, London
Encapsulating the enduring appeal of a gentleman’s club, Scarfe’s Bar is a stylish bolthole nestled within this opulent London address.
From the roaring fireplace to the shelves of books and plush velvet armchairs, you’ll feel as though you’re unwinding in a welcoming drawing room.
Named after British artist Gerald Scarfe, the caricaturist’s satirical paintings adorn the walls and the shelves are filled with over 1,000 books hand-picked by an antiques dealer.
Guests can spend a cold afternoon sipping on cocktails and dining on curry, kebabs and salads. By nightfall live music adds to the ambience.
The Lobby Bar at The Bowery Hotel, New York
Celeb magnet The Bowery attracts A-listers from Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik to David Beckham and Paul McCartney, all drawn to its home-away-from-home ambience.
From its unassuming red brick exterior, few would expect this trendy New York hotel to house a Lobby Bar that exudes the elegant charm of an English country manor – plus a couple of kooky palm trees.
Decked out in dark wood panelling, lavish tapestries and Persian rugs, the bar has velvet furnishings just waiting to be curled up in. Visitors are promised low lighting and a wide selection of cocktails for an intimate and relaxing date in front of the fireplace.
The Blue Lion, East Witton, Yorkshire
This quintessentially English, 18th-century inn in Wensleydale is nestled in the heart of the breath-taking Yorkshire Dales.
Boasting a warm Yorkshire welcome, visitors who walk up its cobbled streets this winter can glow by the fireplace and even stay overnight in one of its 15 rooms, if they find it hard to leave its cosy confines.
Guests can expect candle-lit gastronomic delights as The Blue Inn has won the Dining Pub of the Year Award three times.
The Roebuck, Knutsford, Cheshire
Nothing is likely to warm you against the winter chill like a splash of Mediterranean, found deep in Cheshire.
Serving sunshine flavours and local craft beers, ciders and an extensive wine list, this eclectic gem redefines rustic.
Although Roebuck dates back to 1708 it has been restored and styled with café tables, red leather sofas and candles.
The Howard Arms, Ilmington, Warwickshire
Few pubs can boast an open fireplace as magnificent as the one at the Howard Arms.
Sitting in one of the two homely leather armchairs that are placed next to it as a log crackles away must be one of the most perfect ways to warm up on a winter's evening.
The Warwickshire pub serves good beer from the flagstoned bar and has a blackboard menu and dining room serving seasonal local produce.
And if you over indulge, there’s a village green and orchard nearby to walk off the feast.
The White Hart, South Harting, Sussex
Dogs are welcome at this cosy rural pub, which has a garden best enjoyed in the summer.
But during the colder months, patrons can gorge on wild boar pies and local ale by the fireplace or there are child-sized portions and a selection of meals for vegetarians too.
There is also a guest room ideal for a family staying overnight.
Sign of the Angel, Lacock, Wiltshire
It doesn’t get much more idyllic than the Cotswolds.
And picture postcard Sign of the Angel has all the hallmarks of the perfect inn – from the whitewash walls to the oak furniture and flagstone passageways.
After guests dine on locally sourced moreish fare, there are rooms upstairs to sleep off the excess. And peckish guests may be delighted to find home-made cookies waiting for them on a tea tray.

Interpreting Juke Joints and African American Nightspots on the Mississippi Blues Trail
Interpreting Juke Joints and African American Nightspots on the Mississippi Blues Trail by Scott Barretta
Initiated in 2006, the Mississippi Blues Trail consists of 189 interpretive markers that address important musicians, places and themes in the musical history of the state. Unlike conventional metal markers, the Blues Trail markers feature a vinyl panel on one side with multiple images and over five hundred words of text, allowing considerable interpretive possibilities.
The Trail serves two main purposes—historical documentation and advancement of cultural tourism, goals that might potentially be in conflict. For instance, will bringing more “outsiders” to local watering holes drive away the regulars and thus the “local color” that attracts outsiders to begin with? Alternatively, in the context of a relatively dramatic decline in juke joints with live music over the last decades can we see publicity associated with the Trail as leading to the survival—albeit in an altered form—of the juke?
These questions will be examined via examples of markers placed at longstanding venues including the Blue Front Café in Bentonia, the Queen of Hearts in Jackson, Po’ Monkeys in Merigold, Red’s Lounge in Clarksdale, and the Club Ebony in Indianola.
Another topic to be addressed is how the Blues Trail has acknowledged the spots of defunct, but once vital, venues including Ruby’s Night Spot in Leland, the Harlem Inn in Winstonville, and the Club Desire in Canton. Once central to local African American communities, these venues were previously only alluded to briefly in blues scholarship and largely ignored by local historians or tourism officials.

9. Assia Wevill: The Oven Suicides, Part 2
In 1969, Assia Wevill–hailed as a great beauty and advertising talent–bizarrely committed suicide in the same manner as her paramour’s wife six years earlier. To add to the tragedy, she killed her 4-year-old daughter, Shura. This is the story of a woman tormented by the dead poet Sylvia Plath, the refusal of Sylvia’s husband Ted to commit to her even after he fathered her child, and the memory of her narrow escape from Hitler and the Holocaust.
