Owner Joseph Barnes States ” Once again our institutions serve our needs, we have four floors that can be utilized without interfering into the normal restaurant operations.

Various organizations, business and groups take advantage of our networking Thursdays, to get the word out about their services, new business opportunities or simply to meet like-minded professionals. Professionals are heartened that there is a place within the community that can offer such a service. Different institutions are highlighted weekly, be sure to call to discuss highlighting your business, institution or project.

Baton Rouge sits over Club New Orleans, in a beautifully renovated sandstone building, in the style of a New Orleans Bordello. There are feathers, Mardi Gras masks, mood lighting and trussed corsets aplenty. This is a room that will make anyone familiar with New Orleans sense a feeling of Down home. The music is contemporary, New Orleans Jazz and Zydeco. You can’t eat the music but you will rave about the food.

They serve the best seafood gumbo that I have ever had in New Orleans or elsewhere in the United States, easily the best in New York City. The Pecan Crusted Catfish in Praline Sauce is tearfully memorable and the Slow Roasted Herb Crusted Lamb Chops with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach will transport you to another world.

Try the Hurricanes, which will remind you of Bourbon Street. The tableside flambe demonstration of Bananas Foster is not to be missed. We highly recommend.

In addition, The Power Networking Series has committed to bringing the Power Networking Series uptown to Harlem to continue the economic renaissance that Harlem is currently experiencing. It is the goal of the Power Networking Series to strengthen the human, economic, social, political, and spiritual ties uptown in Harlem to spur economic growth and create the social fabric the foster growth in small business.

George Fraser (www.frasernet.com), whom I consider as my mentor states “Business is about relationships” and “if you are not about the business of building relationships you have no business being in business”.

The Power Networking Series will be presenting it’s sixth in a series of Business Card Exchanges after Hours during the month of October.
