Vancouver 2010

Have you been watching the 2010 Winter Olympics? We have. And we HEART Vancouver. It's a beautiful, vibrant city with lots of actvities for everyone. No wonder Hollywood loves filming there and companies love doing tradeshows there.

Don't know much about Vancouver? Let Sam the Cooking Guy show you around his hometown.

Wanna Pranna?

If you haven't heard by now, Pranna is the hottest venue for NYC event planners these days and a fave among the Housewives of NYC. What makes this place so fabulous? Space, space, space.

What's not so great? Getting in.

Pranna has a lot of nooks and crannies where you could have your private event. There's the lounge area past the main bar, where your event can be roped off to the uninvited. On the same floor is the main dining room, with gorgeous chadeliers and cathedral-like windows. On the upper level is the club lounge with space for dancing.

But Fusion Seven's favorite spot is the Cave on the lower level: a dimly-lit, brick lounge and private bar...perfect for an intimate party that wants to "groove" a little.

Whatever event you're planning, Pranna is worth a site visit!
