SHEBOYGAN – A new bar and banquet hall opened in the former El Camino Mexican Restaurant building, which closed this February.

C & G Bar Lounge, 819 Michigan Ave., has rental packages and bartending and food services.

With an interest in event planning, Marketing Manager Gao Chee Lor said the family-owned business wanted to provide an event space in Sheboygan. Other venues in the area include The Berkshire, Breaking Bread and The Village at 170.

Bar VIP packages range from $300 to $600 and include cases of beer and hard liquor.

A variety of Asian cuisine and other types of cuisine are available on the bar menu, including fried gizzards, spring rolls, crab Rangoon, mini tacos, pho noodle soup, grilled Hmong sausage and sliders.

Lor said C & G Bar Lounge is looking forward to having more community members utilize the space for events.
