Compliment Reasey (27-04-2008) 3

They call this the Islington Branch… but I’d probably prefer to say the Farringdon branch… I’ve been to the Cottons in Chalk Farm, and well decor, layout wise this is a much better option. More natural lights,with light coloured decor, they will also accommodate large groups, and try to be very strict with their 2 hour seatings. One thing …well 2 really…that got on my nerves though, was the fact they don’t allow u to go up to the bar, and by your own drinks,they only allow u to order at the table, and of course pay the service charge… bit silly really.. the other, if there is over 8 people you have to order from this set course menu, so the choice is much more limited! but oh well… Food was okay…. thing is with West Indian restaurants, you compare it to your own home cooking, and well on mass, it won’t always taste exactly the same… I did choose the currygoat and rice… which was nice… hardough bread they gave us.. was .. ermm.. Hard… try leaving it out of the fridge!

After dinner, we went downstairs to the bar/dancefloor area, and on a saturday night they have a DJ, he was playin some rare groove classics… soo we shook a leg or two… drinks were reasonably priced, DJ was good…
