This week on our social channels we focused on all the places we can’t wait to try now that everything is opening up. So along these lines, this month’s blog post is dedicated to all the bars, clubs and restaurants that have been affected by the pandemic and are finally getting the chance to return to business as usual. Here is a shout out to a few more favourites, and what we would recommend sipping on…
Our first pick is the illustrious Sexy Fish. This incredible asian restaurant and late night bar offers a feel of ‘mid-century glamour and opulence’. Sporting some incredible artwork, by the likes of Damien Hirst, Frank Gahry and Michael Roberts, Sexy Fish is the perfect location for a luscious evening of escapism.
If you do find yourself in this sultry venue, firstly say hi to the effervescent Sophie Bratt (one of London’s leading hospitality heroes) and why not try sipping on a Clog Nine? It’s their twist on a vodka soda, made with applewood infused Crystal Head vodka, jasmine, coriander seed and Mt Fuji bitters.
Fancy toasting our recent Aussie-style heatwave? Then head over to newly opened Cin Cin Fitzrovia and sip on one of Regal Rogue’s delicious Australiano cocktails. Light and low abv meaning you don’t need to hold back! Perfect for al fresco dining, Cin Cin is the ideal location tucked behind Oxford Street so great for some post-shopping refuelling. Their outdoor seating area is the perfect spot to watch the world go by.
A new addition to our growing list of personal favourites is NoMad London. With its atrium-lit restaurant and super-stylish British pub-style cocktail bar, Side Hustle, this place has it all. Their vision is to represent an ‘artfully lived life’ at NoMad, which is why the walls are home to so many fantastic pieces of art. Combining character with comfort, NoMad is a great place to visit, and certainly has our vote.
What to drink you ask? Well the menu is Mexican-inspired so fill your boots with the bar’s insane selection of agave-laced delights, the Paloma we tried was pure perfection. You could also ask to try the brand new Sazerac de Forge cognac, it’s top-shelf material, literally, so the bar team will scale the heights of the back bar to get it for you!
Whatever you do to celebrate the re-opening of the hospitality sector, please ensure you treat the staff well, a lot of them are working double shifts and finding their feet again. Leave a tip, give them a big smile and tell them how amazing they are doing!
Cheers!
