Speakeasy

Oooh! it's dangerous having a restaurant-owning fantasy!

I was strolling through town the other day, and came across the site of my first date with Fred (all at once now -  aahhhhh!): 57 Jermyn Street, now sadly boarded up.

It's an amazing space, with a really 1940's speakeasy, clubby feel to it. I dream of it having a long, battered, zinc topped bar, serving great steaks, grilled to seeping perfection, native oysters, Dublin Bay prawns, simply grilled, spankingly fresh fish  -  very Musso and Frank's, very Taylors, very Butcher and Singer.

And it would be furnished with pieces from great old ocean liners, long since scrapped. A place where you sip your martini cold, whist it's still laughing at you and relax.

It's a night out for Christ's sake.

Sigh.
