Before his untimely and tragic death in 1996, Tupac dreamed of opening a restaurant and 21 years later it’s finally coming true. The restaurant, Powamekka Café, will come to NYC for this weekend only. From April 7th-9th, you can enjoy some of the late rappers favorite food which included gumbo, meatloaf, fried chicken wings made by his cousin, Jamala. According to Tupac’s estate, guests who visits the pop-up restaurant during the three day weekend will see a lot of memorabilia of the Rapper such as pictures of his childhood, poems written by him, his classic music and more. The restaurant took over the exact same spot where Sweet Chick used to be at in the Lower East Side. Powamekka’s Café will be at 178 Ludlow Street. Stop by, enjoy the food and celebrate and remember the life of Tupac Shakur.
