Tonight I met up with some of Mirela’s Greek friends, Costas and Poppy who were visiting from Athens, and Chris and Dimos who have been here for over a year and live in Covent Garden, at Beach Blanket Babylon (or BBB as its known to locals.) When we got there at just past 11pm the bar area was absolutely heaving and it was almost like a one out one in system just to get inside. I’ve never been to BBB but I must admit that it was absolutely sumptious with gorgeous interior decorating and beautiful cocktails (if a touch on the expensive side.) And despite the noise inside the bar the bar staff were amazing at interpreting what everyone wanted. According to Mirela BBB is actual very similar to how Greek bars are fitted out so it wasn’t surprising to realise there were a lot of Greeks at BBB tonight.
