Restaurant concept is in partnership with Fixins Soul Kitchen
The Shakur Estate has announced the launch of a limited edition Los Angeles location of Tupac’s Powamekka Café, his original restaurant concept in partnership with Fixins Soul Kitchen located across from the Wake Me When I’m Free Museum at LA Live.
Over 25 years has passed since the iconic rapper conceptualized Powamekka Café. A place for all to “play and parlay,” the Powamekka Café, representing the finest in “down home Southern,” was to serve as a place for friends and family to get together and “escape the worldz cold reality.” His vision first came to life in 2018 in New York’s Lower East Side, with Powamekka Café taking over John Seymour and Nas’ Sweet Chick restaurant on Ludlow Street. Now, Powamekka Café, Los Angeles, will once again give Tupac’s friends, family and fans a chance to revisit his vision. Straight from the handwritten pages of one of his many notebooks, currently on display at the exhibit, Tupac’s concept is brought to life by including his favorite items from the menu he created including meatloaf, gumbo and his cousin Jamala’s fried chicken wings.
The Powamekka Café will be located at 800 W Olympic Blvd A150, Los Angeles, CA 90015 from June 16-30th and be open Monday-Thursday from 11 am until 9 pm; Fridays from 11 am until 11 pm, Saturdays from 10 am until 11 pm and Sunday from 10 am until 9 pm PT. Reservations will be available via Open Table.
