Their launch was full of good things, from the succulent spiced squid to the incredibly friendly team behind the venture.Thanks to everyone for their great reviews and suggested changes. Cant wait to go back to both of these bars and give them a full workout and review.īut my very latest experience was at the Bombay cafe Dishoom – ‘dishoom’ is an Indian word which can mean ‘mojo’ or the sound of a punch being thrown – like ‘pow’ or ‘bam’.

I’ve been very busy lately, what with Imbibe last week, and checking out a number of new bars and cafes. Elderflower and champagne cocktail at The Lonsdale
