The event, finely curated by entertainment company, Party And A Vibe (PAAV), featured the gentlemen’s bar being turned into a mini Casino with a poker table, black jack table, giant card frames, classic card games, board games and many more fun casino-vibe activities. 

The highlight of the evening however, was the digital photo booth that had guests raving throughout the lavish party. The booth had lots of props for guests to pose with, creating awesome memories that left a sense of the glitz of Las Vegas and the elegance of Monte Carlo. If you have never experienced any of the latter, The Kings and Queens of Hearts Meets Casino would have just been your much needed introduction. 

 Making the evening even more fabulous was the celebration of the 35th birthday of Liz Osho, CEO extraordinaire of So.Me Solutions. Liz, as she is fondly called, arrived to the party looking stunning in a body-fitting red cocktail dress with layered frills reminiscent of a Michael Costello piece. She and her guests occupied the infamous ‘Morroccan red room’ at Roma and the way they partied indicates there’s every chance that the 30th of March 2019 at Roma will go down in the history books as one of Roma’s greatest parties. But it was at the end of the night when Liz seemed to be at her best—when she took to the center of the room to slice her sparkling casino inspired cake in the company of loved ones, friends and family.    

The party which started at about 8pm with red carpet appearances through till midnight had everyone rocking the best music with DJ Venum, Roma’s in-house DJ! Guests nibbled and munched on delicious food platters and of course, the drinks just kept on coming. IT WAS LIT!!!  

It would only be right to say that our esteemed guests including Bolanle Olukanni, Denola Grey, Shade Ladipo, Adebayo Oke Lawal, Jemima Osunde, Bollylomo amongst many others had quite an amazing time. 

 “We do not joke with the quality of our events and the party experience for all our clients, both first-timers and returning customers. When you walk into Roma, it’s almost like you are in Ancient Rome. So when we chose the ‘Kings and Queens Meets Casino Royale’ theme, we knew we had to go all out to host a party in the ranks of a Las Vegas Casino party. I think we can proudly say that we achieved that and our guests had the ultimate party experience.” Uzo Izugbokwe, Founder Roma Lagos shared.  

Roma lagos definitely pulled out all the stops to host the coolest theme party and we are definitely looking forward to more.   To see more pictures from the party, check out the hashtag #RomaRoyale and to see more of what Roma is doing, follow them on Instagram @romalagos.

On Sunday, February 3rd, 2019, Roma Lagos, the first ever Roman-inspired luxury restaurant/lounge in Lagos, located at 31A Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase I, hosted its maiden edition of ‘The FEAST AT ROMA’ and it was indeed, “a feast feast!”

Roma’s exquisite kitchen treated the likes of Adebayo Oke Lawal, Aduke Bey, Idia Aisien, Prince Noble, Steve Chuks, Akah Nnani, and many more fabulous guests to some grand platters. Let’s take a look:

Roma Lagos Feast Menu

The remarkable menu consisted of a seafood boil, a carnivorous platter, a mixed platter, and a cheese and cold cuts platter that was not just the ultimate feast for the eyes because of its beautiful presentation, but also, the ultimate feast for the stomach. Bringing a particular sweetness to the table was French luxury champagne brand, Veuve Clicquot, who partnered with Roma to organize this exclusive event to further elevate the Roma experience.

The dishes were carefully curated for the feast had deep and complex flavors that wowed the guests’ palettes but the shining star of the day was the seafood boil. In a city as diverse as Lagos, it is surprising that it is almost impossible to find a decent seafood boil, and every foodie knows that a seafood boil is one of the great communal eating experiences ever. Whether you’ve had a bad day or whether you’ve had an absolutely brilliant day, coming together with your loved ones to sit and eat some darn good salt potatoes with sweet corn, shrimp and various kinds of cajun-spiced shellfish will always make your day that more special. So if you’ve been looking for the tastiest, well-done seafood boil in Lagos, head on to Roma. We’re elevating our eating style in 2019, yes ma’am!

The Feast at Roma had guests chittering and chattering away as they shared meals, Veuve Clicquot champagne, laughter, and good vibes. While they ate, they were serenaded by saxophonists that covered everything from classic jazz to new-age hip hop. DJ Venum also provided the guests with excellent music that had the guests grooving way into the night as they also enjoyed some cool and high-quality shisha flavors The entire ambiance, food, service, etc., provided quite the idyllic Sunday. This is how ROMA makes things sweet and heated.

Along with Victoria Island and Ikoyi, Lekki has become a bittersweet agglomeration of residence and business and consequently, a major hub for nightlife. There’s no scarcity of options when it comes to lounges, bars, clubs as well as, restaurants, thus, creating the desire to find something that is not only premium and exclusive but also, all-encompassing of the various experiences one has when one chooses to go to either a bar, a club, or restaurant. ROMA Lagos is this all-encompassing place and we’re so glad we found it!
