I had a great time last night hanging out with R&B crooner Robert “R.L” Huggar member of the group Next. The private dinner party was held at Uptown Lounge and given by his beautiful longtime girlfriend Lena Chenier. It was filled with his close friends,manager,and family. He received a blingy gold watch from his longtime manager/best friend Lance Kragness.I was not aware that R.L. was a songwriter too. He has written songs for Jaheim, Lloyd, and so many others. I loved the song Wifey and use to hand dance to that song all the time. Even Lloyd stopped by to wish him well!

We had a great dinner that consisted of, Crab cake basil anglaise,gumbo shots, salad, brandied filet mignon, Creamy sherry tilapia and for dessert blue velvet cake. Now you guys see why I cant loose weight. Everything was really tasty! The chef for the night was Cynthia Bailey who’s co owner of Uptown Lounge. She looked very haute to be a chef lol. If I was cooking meals, I wanna look like that too ha! Cynthia also gave R.L. one of her favorite signature drinks, that looked tasty!
