If you don't know anything about reggae, you can get a crash course here. If you are crazy for Bob Marley, you can find fellow fanatics at this intimate venue.

Together is unassumingly located on a small, lampless, backstreet off the jam-packed third ring road. A wooden marionette greets you in front of the appropriately colored green, yellow and red striped door.

From the outside, with its log paneling and oversized wooden signs, the venue looks like a log cabin out of a children's story.

You'd half-expect Goldilocks and the three bears to come tumbling out. Instead, merrymakers fill the outside patio, which is packed to maximum capacity with chairs, tables and colorful umbrellas.

Inside, Bob Marley posters line the wall and there is a 21-inch TV showing Jamaican movies. A small space is allocated to DJs, but it's cramped, so if weather pemits, enjoy the outdoors.
