Six By Nico – Canary Wharf
An exceptional night out at the Canary Wharf venue. Our second time at this small niche restaurant chain, the last time we visited the Fitzrovia venue.
We started with some “pre’s” near Kings Cross where we found a lovely wine bar called “Bar Rioja” which is hidden in a tiny alleyway just off Pentonville Road. T’was a little bit pricey but has a huge selection of Rioja wines as you’d expect with its name.
In fact we had actually started our evening in a pub just around the corner where Emma tore into her first glass of Prosecco (shhhhh).
We then headed off to Canary Wharf where we had booked at table to try out a six course Vietnamese themed delight. We were looking forward to this one!
Emma had spotted a “Black Friday” sale back in November that was so well priced it couldn’t be ignored (50% off). So we stuck this date in our diary a long time ago.
What we love about this place is the quality of the food, and the brilliance of the wine pairing. Each of the six courses come with a new glass of wine, especially selected for the dish you are about to consume.
We then ended the night in Brixton, and the Blues Kitchen, which at first appeared smaller than the Camden version of the same name, but turned out that it has a HUGE dance floor on the first floor with a very different character to the ground floor live blues music venue. It ended up being a late one!
