Morning after March 19, 2006
Posted by CamdenKiwi in : Cafes & Restaurants,Camden , trackbackI woke up this morning, a little jaded after my birthday bash last night. The evening had started with champagne at the flat, which is a very civilised drink and never leads to after effects, but unfortunately the same cannot be said for the delicious rioja at El Parador where I'd taken everyone for dinner. The restaurant was up to its usual high standard, with the lamb and the squid standing out. It's rare to find squid that isn't rubbery or encased in batter (or both) and this melted in the mouth.
So this morning, I had to deal with the aftermath. It's not the glasses, empties and all, but the need to rearrange the furniture which I'd moved around to make space. The lounge chair is definitely going up on freecycle – this room is not big enough. I can only hope that the nice elderly lady downstairs wasn't suffering from a hangover as well, because the racket as I pulled the table round on the wooden floor wouldn't have been good.
Fortunately Camden is full of hangover cures, and the Goodfare Italian Restaurant on the corner of Parkway and Arlington Road is just the thing, with a Sunday roast for under £10. This place has recently changed ownership, and AN Wilson who is apparently a regular, was quoted as very worried in the Camden New Journal. It's had a new coat of paint, but food and staff remain comfortingly the same.
More blogging this week, I promise.
