    Camino is very big, with plenty of space outside. It is right next to Kings Cross, but you would never know, because it is behind other buildings. So you enter through a short, (slightly tricky to spot) alley and emerge in a hidden courtyard. Get a map from their website www.barcamino.com and send it to anyone you're inviting or you might end up with a few 'lost' friends.

    If you regularly commute home from Kings Cross, this would be a perfect place to go with colleagues for one of those after work celebrations.

    I enjoyed the white wine pronounced ree-o-ca (ok I have heard of it but I have no idea how to spell it) and the special lime cocktail that's famous in Brazil apparently. It comes with lots of chunks of lime crammed into a glass with chipped ice. The Tapas is entirely delicious although be careful not too order too many dishes with potato in them. I succeeded in tackling an open topped sandwich featuring a fried quails egg sunny side up without mishap. You've got to live dangerously!

    The only reason I wouldn't give Camino more stars is that it felt a bit bland to me. But that's good for after work venues with a mixture of people, when you want something to suit everyone.

    Ha, ree-o-ca indeed! That was a white Rioja, Frankie. It's more usually a red wine. :-)
