Weekend 19-22/10

Long weekend the last one, Roberto was leaving East London and we partied till we died. On Friday I got so hammered after few ‘Bohemias’ -a premium Mexican beer- and some tequila shots obviously at Mercado; as usual cool ambience, nice girls –specially an Argentinean one- and great service –not just because we know all the staff.

On Saturday night we went to the King’s Head on Upper Street were we met Andres, a Chilean who works for Green Peace. He had just come back from a protest in France where they were trying to close down a Nuclear plant. There was a band playing live and it was just incredible apart from the fact that it was packed. Then afterwards he headed towards Mercado where I met Kathy and spoke till I barely remember… Some tequila shots and finally we spent the rest of the night at Green Peace’s headquarters (UK).

Sunday midday, breakfast at ‘el aguajal’ a tangy sea-food ceviche and a beer, a visit to a restaurant shop with Roberto and the owner of the restaurant where he will be working and finally Hammersmith. We first had lunch at this very promising Argentinean restaurant ‘Lola and Simon’, a nice bottle of an Argentinean blend between Merlot and Malbec which went very well with the two fillet steaks. Then afterwards we ended up in a pub near the tube station having ‘ales’ while watching the F1 race. Gosh, after all this I will not be able to say that I had a terrible Monday…
