Club Meatballs is definitely a go-to place for a drink after work. Hustling and bustling on a Friday evening and people surrounding the bar outside with a beer or glass of wine in hand. It’s definitely not somewhere you’d go for a quiet dinner. We ordered the cold cuts, grilled chorizo and of course, some meatballs (chicken, beef, pork) to share. We were most surprised by the chorizo, not at all greasy with the right amount of juice from the green peppers. Very delicious.
We then moved on to an underground bar we’d been before that’s in the neighborhood – Operation Dagger. Bottles of liquor in medicine/Aesop-like containers lined on the wall behind the bar, this fairly small lounge dons some eccentric decor. Lime green walls lit up by neon lights and ceiling completely covered by light bulbs, the cocktails were served in small bowls instead of glasses. Not exactly sure what was inside mine but it tasted of yogurt and yakult, with a white chocolate casing floating on top. Boyfriend’s was a savoury one with a piece of cucumber to go with it. Very special indeed, but based on the prices, not really somewhere we’d be visiting often.
