Sweet City Signs

Coming and I Wonder if it’s Really Coming

Next to today’s “judging buildings” at 455 Mass Ave., NW is a big sign for Buddha Bar. The Triangle blog has a bit more info. Looks like it could be pretty cool. Anyone else familiar with this spot? Apparently they have a spot in NYC, anyone ever been?

And while it has looked ready to open for a while, I’m beginning to suspect the dry cleaner to open at Florida and 13th Street, NW, may never open…

I’ve also been to the Buddha Bar in Paris…imagine the music of the 18th St lounge in a massive beautiful space with a 2 story Buddha. Swank and over the top – too much for me. They also put out a bunch of music mix CDs.

Yah, hasn’t that been “coming soon” for quite some time now?

There’s a pretty cool branch of the Buddha Bar in Beirut, Lebanon, too.

I’ve been to the one in NYC – very cool. Also, they sell the music on CDs – really great stuff if you want some chill music for your next party – http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=buddha+bar+music&tag=googhydr-20&index=aps&hvadid=1102228301&ref=pd_sl_123v2nq5k1_e

My wife had the sweet sounds of a Buddha Bar mix playing when she gave birth to our son.

I’ve been to the one in Paris as well. It was kind of the Cheesecake Factory with Buddha statues, but the food was actually really good. I was young then, so I admit that I bought the cd’s.
