In the mood for sushi, cocktails and dancing?
I am a serious sushi girl. I find it the perfect way to start the
evening but there better be some delicious cocktails and some even
better music with my tuna sashimi.
My five favourite places in London for sushi, cocktails and dancing.
Nobu It has one of the best bars in London and
add the superb food and terrific music your in for a wonderful start
to the evening.
There is always a good crowd and it’s just road the corner
from Cuckoo and The Burlington Club! And the cocktails, well they
are divine. Lychee Martinis all the way. 15 Berkley Street, London
Zuma This place is always buzzing with a packed bar
and a heavy reservation list. The food is as sophisticated as the
Knightsbridge
crowd. The atmosphere
and decor is fantastic. The private table at the back are ideal for a party
with plenty of Wagyu no sumibiaki (Wagyu beef and wasabi) and Ise
ebi (Lobster tempura
with spicy ponzu) and lots of Zumanuka cocktail. Delicious. 5 Raphael Street, London
Roka The sister to Zuma this place has a similar menu
but it’s
the bar down starts, Shochu, which is the place to be. Hidden away one can
enjoy some chilli edamame and soft shell crab on lounge tables round the
bar. The perfect
place if you have people joining you for after dinner drinks. And as for
the drinks well try the Lipstick Rose or the Green Tea Pear Bellini. 37 Charlotte Street, London
Nozomi A late dinner is the thing to do here because
the bar gets going around 11pm. And by going I mean really going.
The cocktails start pouring;
the music starts pounding and the dancing starts getting a little crazy.
Oh and the
sushi’s not bad either. 15 Beauchamp Place, London
