BLISS, the new all-inclusive Carnival Band heading into its second year launched its Carnival presentation - Destination Bliss 2012 held at Ipanema Restaurant and Lounge 12 Victoria Avenue, Port of Spain. On getting to the venue there were security and ushers directing specially invited guests to park their vehicles at Tranquility Government Secondary Schools compound just a stone throw away. As guests entered the courtyard of Ipanema, they were treated with punch from petit young ladies. Now Ipanema restaurant is a newly opened restaurant. Business commenced approximately two months prior to the Bands Launch enveloped in its Victorian styled layout which was once owned by the Seigert family of Angostura fame. You could have seen Executive Chef Yvan Acquing mingling among the guest.
