The Velvet Cigar is a dramatic concoction of movie star Hollywood glitz and glamour stirred with a touch of European class and luxury, a complete turnaround from the modern, minimalist decorating styles we've recently become accustomed to in clubs.

Here, extravagantly rich furnishings beckon, and the only thing minimalist is the seductive lighting in the Club's three sections. In the French Baroque Lounge, connoisseurs of the finer things in life will find utopia. A drink from the well stocked bar is a pleasant and soothing escape from the hustle of the outside world. Exclusive imported cognac is impossible to refuse, as is the lure of French Champagne - both an integral part of the Club's appeal. The stunning balcony level boasts luxurious Chesterfield lounges, surrounded by lavish artworks. Below the entertainment forum hosts a glamorous showcase beneath the crystal chandeliers, the floor bejewelled with glittering gold podiums acting as glowing hubs for beautiful dancers.

It is believed the first beer was fermented by Egyptian slaves using bread and water.

Beer has been brewed in Belgium since the days of the Roman conquest. Gauls and Romans alike drank a Belgian brew that was an upgraded version of the Egyptian predecessor. The technical knowledge needed for brewing beer was concentrated within the walls of the monasteries. The 11th century monks in Low Countries, whose order originated in France, had a great deal of wine making knowledge and were somewhat astute in the sciences of the time. The monks applied these principles to brewing and produced the first wholesome Belgian beers.
