After a dinner, this place is a good meeting point for a group of friends. As it is so popular there are bouncers at the door, letting only as many people in as there are going out. To be fair, this place is tiny and if it gets too packed you get to step onto each other's feet. There is a more casual bar on the ground floor; going down the stairs you will find yourself on the dance floor. Not many places around South Ken are open late, however, this one got a license until 2am, which makes you get into the dance move. You will find yourself surrounded by locals and an international mix. I often bump into Greeks and Germans. As Eclipse has more of a lounge feeling to it, you will find yourself talking to people you would otherwise not have met. If you are early enough, the main highlight is the bongo player, which brings rhythm into the bar. I would not plan my night around Eclipse, however, this is a great alternative to consider if you happened not to be on a guest list somewhere else.

    Galante is a super-swanky bar in Kensington. A dimly-lit interior, with the bar at the centre…read moremanned by male bar staff in white DJs. Customers sit on leather booths or bar stools, served by female waitresses in glamorous dresses. I was there with Andrew M, Erica U and Dza D. First up were the cocktails, in my case, the signature 'Galante'. I'm generally a cocktail-sceptic: too often they appear to be little more than labour-intensive, watery additions to a glassful of ice. But the 'Galante' served here was so much better than that: a super-strong mixture of various liqueurs, a cherry at the bottom of the glass and no ice in sight. Had I drunk that all night, I would have been a happy man. But as a Yelper I thought it my duty to try their other stuff too. So, feeling lucky, I opted for their random mix of the day: 'Canta' (Spanish for 'chance'). And quickly discovered that I should have listened to Clint's monologue about the Magnum being the most powerful gun in the world, for 'Canta' proved to be exactly the kind of cocktail I dislike: hardly any alcohol, some fruit juice, and a whole lot of ice. To their credit, the staff took it off the bill and replaced it with some Argentinian beer instead. A welcome gesture, but unfortunately the beer wasn't great, rivalling US Budweiser for depth. In and amongst the cocktails and beer I also tried some of their Argentinian wine. I loved the huge glasses they came in, but I didn't think the wine was spectacular, certainly not for the £8.50 charged per glass. But I wasn't done there. An ill-conceived game against Erica (that stuff about alcohol affecting your decision-making? It's true) of 'Spot the American' in the crowd of women in the neighbouring booth with double Tequila shot stakes resulted in, well, us all trying their Tequila. Perhaps for the better, because it showed their Tequila to be pretty good. Overall, okay. Great service, swanky interior and some good drinks (their 'Galante', the Tequila) off-set by some not-so-much ones (their beer, the 'Canta' cocktails) and the high price of everything (most cocktails were around the £12 mark, wine was £8.50 a glass).

    Posh doesn't even begin to describe the visual image of Bar Galante. Having organised drinks here…read moreon Friday, I failed to dig in a bit (or use any sort of common sense) as to what an appropriate dress code would be. So naturally, being Friday and all, I rocked up in jeans, polo, and cycling gear. Wow was I out of place. I've got to describe how it looks to put this in perspective. This is the epitome of glamorous (despite the door to Gaucho) with black, white, and silver being the colours of choice. The bar is the centrepiece with tables and booths scattered around. The hostess is delicately attired in a slim black dress, the waitresses in skin tone shifts that hug their shapely curves and show off long legs, and the immaculately coiffed (never thought I'd use that word) bartenders are dressed to kill in white dinner jackets. If I was wearing my tux I would just about be on par. That being said, I've got to give credit to the warm personalities of both the hostess and waitresses. They didn't have that puffed up sense of importance you all too often find in such places and really made us feel comfortable and welcome. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the different cocktails and ingredients (some of which I've never heard of) and patiently answered our questions. She even recommended drinks when requested and her choices were fantastic. I had an old fashioned style drink which was sweet and smoky in just the right ways and something that was a tropical version of a Moscow mule. They have a selection of food although be warned that these aren't meant to be a replacement for dinner but merely to take the edge off your hunger. I suppose that makes sense since Gaucho is attached and most people likely come for pre- and post-dinner drinks. However, the seafood ceviche was most excellent and the trio of mini-burgers was well received by my friends who polished them off in a heartbeat. It's ridiculously quiet in part due to the design and part due to the fact it's rarely more than half full. This makes it great for catching up with friends but also discourages people watching. I didn't realise Erica U was in the booth next to me until Peter S showed up and pointed it out to both of us! It's a bit of an expensive place with cocktails running from £10-14 and food being about £7 per dish. I think two drinks and the ceviche took me to around £35-40 so definitely not a place to spend the whole night unless you are feeling proper flush. Still, if I'm in the area and just meeting up for a drink, I'd definitely keep this in mind! Provided I had my tux on of course...

The waitresses wore all black, which went with the interior design of the place. Outside of the building, you will see people blowing hookah smoke like wizards from The Lord of the Rings. In front of the woman's bathroom, there is a silhouette of a belly dancer with long flowing hair. In front of the men's room, there is a drawing of a man wearing a thobe, a ghutra, an egal, and he is holding one of those long curved canes from the biblical era. The chicken kafta was delicious and they gave me just the right amount of food. They put tasty green powdery stuff in my tomato slices. It was also my first time drinking moroccan tea, which I should say was really good after eating mint leaves. They told me not to tip them, which is something that I am not used to, because I am from the U.S., but it's common in England and Spain. The waiters are nice people. I accidentally knocked over an empty beer bottle with my umbrella, and nobody got upset. A waiter just offered to take my giant UK flag umbrella, and save it up front for me to pick it up later. I was really anxious, I apologized twice, and then my waitress said, it's okay, with a smile, and then another waitress cleaned it up. Thank you Mamounia for being a great part of my vacation!

Upon arrival, we waited for over 10 minutes in the lobby, without any welcome drink. Once we were eventually taken to our seats, I was surprised to find out straight away that the staff was on hedge and very unfriendly. Although it was a busy evening, the (high) price paid simply did not match the level of service received. The room was extremely loud, and there was too much proximity between tables to enable any intimacy. After receiving our starter, we waited for over an hour, and, despite my several questions to the waiters, we never got our main meal. We eventually left, hungry, and frustrated. At that time, most restaurants were closed which put me in a very uncomfortable situation with my girlfriend. Finally, the fact that dinner was paid ahead of the event really creates a sentiment of being robbed.
