It was very swanky. No password needed, but it had no name on the door, so you needed to be “in the know” to find the place.
Our mobster bloke was Squizzy Taylor, so it would have been “Friend of Squizzy” if we needed one.
Id never been to a place that paired alcohol with food in a formal way. We had 5 little courses, and a matched cocktail for each. Only one was vile - it was paired with chicken & greens - and was spicy & not nice to drink at all. It was the only one that most of us didn’t finish at least half.
The last drink was the most fun - it got set on fire! (I think I posted a little video on my IG last week). Elfy couldn’t drink his as it was too strong & burnt his nasal passages, but I enjoyed it.
