Doon - Downstairs at Albannach 12th May 2007

Doon is a 'late night cocktail lounge' located in the basement of the Albannach restaurant, just across the road from Trafalgar Square. I went there one night to celebrate a friends Hens night - that special girlie event to celebrate/commiserate the impending nuptials of a friend.

We met up straight from work and the place was empty for a couple of hours, apart from us group of girlies sitting in one of cool 'vaults' sipping our wine and torturing the bride-to-be with all sorts of personal questions.

The vaults are a cool feature - small booths set in the walls which are perfect for small groups or romantic interludes. Service throughout the evening was pretty good, with one friendly waiter dealing with us lovely ladies.

We indulged in a series of their 'bar bites' as well - needed something to try and soak up some of that vino. The selection included Crab risotto balls, Venison sausages, Tempura king prawns, and good old potato wedges.

I liked the feel and look of Doon and will definitely drag hubby here one evening for cocktails and conversation in our private vault.
