Tupac Shakur Pop-Up Restaurant Opening On 20th Anniv of Death

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of Tupac Shakur’s death, Take 3, a restaurant based in Fresno, Calif, will pay tribute to the rap icon's memory by opening the The Powamekka Café pop-up restaurant on Tuesday (Sept. 13) featuring special menu items that celebrate the legacy Tupac left behind.

Before his passing, the “All Eyez on Me” rapper drafted a logo and theme with the hopes of opening up 'The Powamekka Cafe' -- a music-themed restaurant where artists could include their own recipes -- but sadly could not bring his vision to life.


Take 3 will honor Shakur's vision with the pop-up, where patrons can order Tupac-inspired dishes such as 'Thug Passion' cake pops, 'Mac-and-Cheeseburgers' or even a 'California Love' chicken sandwich. The celebration -- which will begin at 7 p.m. -- will also give local artists the  opportunity to cover some of Tupac's greatest hits. 

A Tupac biopic, All Eyez on Me, is also set to hit theaters on November 11, 2016; watch the trailer below
