Mews Of Mayfair
For tonight's Date Night, I'd got us a TimeOut voucher for cocktails at the Mews Of Mayfair. The bar was located in a very swanky fairy-lit alleyway in Mayfair with lots of tables on either side.

At The Drive In
We were off to see At The Drive In in Brixton tonight, so we stopped off at Cubana for some food before the gig. I had a Caipirinha and we ordered lots of tapas to share. We had avocado tortillas...

Garlic & Shots
We haven't been to The Crobar in years and years and years, so we popped in for a drink after work today. I was so glad that they still serve root beer, so I could order my antiseptic marzipan coc...
