My second visit to the little yellow door made for another fun evening!
The space is meant to feel like you are in someone's flat, with charming touches and "personal" belongings are scattered about- even a fish tank. My friend and I were treated to a welcome drink of the house punch, a fruit mix served with a cucumber strip.
One we we settled into our tables, we embarked on a three course meal, South American style! The starter platter consisted of duck tostadas, cornbread and chorizo bites, and my favourite- the smoked beef!
Our next course was a fresh and slightly spicy clear soup with chicken, prawn and avocado. Finally, we had shredded slow cooked lamb on a bed of polenta with corn salsa and peppers. Everything was flavoured to perfection, succulent and well presented. Desserts were bite sized, and slightly disappointing with an overly minty pannacotta and stodgy banana popover with caramel sauce.
Service is always friendly, great atmosphere sharing a large table with a group of strangers!
The down side- incredibly overpriced cocktails (circa £10 each, plus service charge despite having to order yourself from the bar) and general overcrowding at the tables, feels a bit like they are trying to cram way too many people in!
Tables after dinner are cleared away, transforming the space into a bar. Cool vibe, but be wary if you're a cocktail fanatic!
