My next stop - Tom's Terrace

I personally think Tom Aikens is quite cute and have been to his restaurants and always had a great time, my ex-boyfriend even had to stop me from staring at the cute chef in action (he was reading his boring Sunday newspaper so I had to entertain myself, non?)

Somerset House is one of my favourite spots in London with the lovely water fountains and fab architectural beauty that surrounds it so how fitting to haev a great and cool patio restaurant with Tom at the helm. I walked by it the other day and was definitely impressed, the pics on the Somerset House website don't do it jsutice but check out Mathilde Cuisine's blog for her review and some great pics! And check out my review that will be posted soon as when it finally gets warmer I would love to sit on the patio and enjoy some delights from Hottie Tom and co. The maitre'd said that they close, 'well whenever, depending on the evening and the weather' my kinda place indeed.

Cocktail anyone?After an afternoon skating at Somerset House - or I would say watching the Brits; perform some acrobatic falls, do the hanging onto the ledge skate and wobble along precariously, we had mulled wine at Somerset House and then went for happy hour drinks at a bar in Covent Garden. It was the night of our work Christmas party and the bartender was probably overwhelmed when 25 of us piled into the bar and the boss ordered 100 drinks at once -half were mojitos and the other half were some kind of grapefruit cocktail. Happy Hour only lasts til 7pm you know?

Loungers really know how to have a party! After drinks we went onto Guanabara for some Brazilian food, music and dance lessons. A great night out! Hope everyone's work Christmas party was as fab as ours.
