Review of $ Grills and Martinis

Porn Star Martinis 
Oh my. Work drinks took place here a couple of weeks ago and my - how the cocktails flowed. We cosied up in a sexy red alcove lined with cushions and candles. The decor is Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen mixed in with Louis XIV and a bit of Moulin Rouge. The service is impeccable. The food - we had mini burgers, nachos, battered thai prawns and goats cheese tartlets - was to die for. And can I just say, the Porn Star Martini, which comes with half a passion fruit and a shot of champagne, is quite possibly the best thing I have ever encountered in my drinking career. Recommended.

Review of Guanabara

Get here before 8 at weekends! 
Went to Guanabara for my birthday on a Friday night and had a brilliant time - mainly because I had been tipped off beforehand to a) get there as soon as it opened to avoid the queues and b) make the most of happy hour from 5-7 pm. With fresh made mojitos £3 and house wine £8 a bottle, stockpiling is the way to go! The DJ was ok but the live band were utterly brilliant - lots of sweaty dancing to beguiling beats. Some advice: for a long evening, book a table in advance - otherwise you have to stand, eat food off the bar and generally not get to sit down! Also - this is no joke - there is a queue of at least 1 hour after 8pm. Many of my friends didn't make it, much to my disappointment, because of this fact. So get there early, stockpile the drinks and dance the night away!
