“Yakumama” in Cuenca, Ecuador, is considered the best local entertainment hang-out in town. This truism creates a reality for more than one reason:
1. The men who handle every aspect of the business at Yakumama, Alejandro, Pepo, and Vinnie, are keenly aware that one of the best ways to appeal to money-paying customers is through their stomachs. These fellows are smart. They work with the beautiful and talented, Cristina. Cristina is charge of the kitchen. Her culinary leadership is excellent and because she creates the specialized menus for the restaurant, people come in high numbers as they love to visit the restaurant.
2. There is a high-spirited and very wonderful party most nights of the week! Pepo, the DJ at Yakumama, is definitely one of the best DJ’s on the planet! This man knows pop music!! People in Cuenca know quite well the vibe and feeling Pepo alone creates… and the rhythm Pepo puts in the air most evenings at Yakumama rocks the house! People love dancing there and love is always in the air!
3. The elevated stage at Yakumama Bistro is a rare treat… not only for the audience, but, for the performers! Audiences enjoy entertainers, comedians, and you-name-it on the Yakumama elevated stage. And Star Singer takes full advantage of that stage singing and strumming his freedom folk songs.
Memorable Star Singer performances on Yakumama’s stage have been chronicled by film makers. Reviews and short documentaries on Star Singer have been published. Music aficionados all over the world access and experience Star Singer on the internet and the auspices of Pepo at Yakumama and Star Singer is more than appreciative.
Yes, Yakumama is making Star Singer world famous!
