I met my mother and my sister in Inamo, a Soho oriental fusion restaurant known for it's interactive experience. When we were seated, our waitress explained to us how to order. We had to use a special track pad built into the table to pick what we wanted- as we scanned over the options, the dishes were projected onto our plates in font of us! We could also pick our table decoration or play games on table top! This made the experience of picking our food significantly more exciting, however I was concerned that the fancy ordering system would detract away from what was the main attraction for me, the food! Luckily, I was proved wrong and the food was delicious, especially the spicy aubergine. The sauce was so good that the three of us were mopping it up with anything and everything we had. We even stopped our poor waitress from removing the seemingly empty bowl three times in a desperate attempt to lick up the last tasty morsels! Our other dishes were also yummy- I especially loved the chicken satay and my drink which was a mocktail made up of passionfruit and guava juice. My little sister demolished her salmon, declaring it simply to be 'the best cooked salmon she'd ever tasted!'- high praise indeed coming from her!
After our cocktails had been sipped away, we headed for dinner at Scott's Restaurant in Mayfair, a place known for its exceptional seafood. Before long, we were diving into a huge pile of oysters and other fishy foods, as well as my two favourite meats, duck and venison. My favourite dish however had to be my pudding, a caramel fondant with salted caramel ice-cream. Heaven on a plate!
Some time later, feeling very full and just a bit sleepy I finally slipped into my waiting car, ready to go home. All in all, I'd had an absolutely wonderful birthday weekend full of surprises and wonderful food. What more could a girl ask for?
