Alcoholic Architecture Breathe Responsibly Cocktail Experience Review

Alcoholic Architecture Breathe Responsibly Cocktail Experience Review


I care not if FOMO is something that should be left in the dusty remains of 2015. I'm dragging it along 2016 until its legs stop working, then I'll drag it some more until its pulse slows down and then when it drops dead I'll accept it would never have survived past March. FOMO is in my (much alive) blood and as such, there was no way I was going to miss out on going to the Alcoholic Architecture in London Bridge's Borough Market.

My 30th birthday party at Bar 366 Clapham

My 30th birthday party at Bar 366 Clapham

When I was young (please refrain yourself from belting out Celine Dion) and I thought about what my 30th birthday party was like, I suppose I thought it would be a terribly grown up affair.  Perhaps dinner at some fancy restaurant.  Probably thinking I'd have a husband and children by this point.  Who would have known it would involve clowns, a burlesque dancer and my outfit rivaling a Vegas show girl.  Of course, there is only one place that was worthy for such an event and that was at Bar 366

London Sky Bar Cocktail Bar Review

London Sky Bar Cocktail Bar Review

Yes sir, I can boogie.  But I need a certain song...and that certain song can hopefully be found at a silent disco where you get to antisocially dance along to all the songs you like best by flicking between 3 music channels.  I'll leave the Grease mega mix to you guys as I'll be found throwing shapes (yup I said that) to the house channel.  My ridiculous addiction to silent discos led me to Vauxhall to the Millbank Tower to Altitude but not before a quick cocktail in London Sky Bar

Cocktails at Ben's Canteen Clapham

Cocktails at Ben's Canteen Clapham

Clapham has suddenly crept into my life with some speed over the last year.  Races (10k and 15k *smug*), boot camp classes (short lived because I couldn't deal with the wimpy girls who didn't want to do push ups in the mud...the zumba class is down the road love), dates (let's not discuss those) and raves (my first festival and I choose SW4 - start how I mean to go on) to name a few reasons for my trips to Clapham.  And now off to Ben's Canteen for food because my brother had a requirement of "somewhere good for burgers" (or is it Battersea...I'm not au fait with the regional rules yet).

Cocktails at Balls Brothers London Bridge

Cocktails at Balls Brothers London Bridge

I can't get enough of tall buildings in London - it just makes London look so purty.  So far I've had cocktails at Paramount (level 33), the Gherkin (level 40) and Vertigo 42 (level 42...duh).  Now the mother of all tall buildings - the Shard (level 72).  Although not for completely classy reasons but to rave it up at a silent disco.  Yeeeees.  This calls for some food and cocktails first, stopping off at Hays Galleria - Balls Brothers.

Cocktails at the Rooftop Film Club Peckham

I watched the movie 'Ted' at my friend's house last night and now I want to watch 'Flash Gordon'.  It looks so indescribably cheesy and melodramatic all in one.  They just don't make films like they used to *sighs like an old lady*.

On the topic of old films, payday cocktail club was one of my favourites as it was watching the classic film 'Cocktail'.  This brilliant concept is run by the Rooftop Cinema Club (http://rooftopfilmclub.com/index.html) and ticks so many of my checklist of requirements it's unreal.  The Rooftop Cinema Club runs at a number of places around London and this particular night was in Peckham at the Bussey Building.

Cocktails at Chino Latino Vauxhall

I was at a house party on Friday night and the night before going, I was in one of those stingy moods whilst perusing the alcohol aisle of Asda and I decided, as it was a few quid cheaper than Absolut, to get some suspect vodka brand which I've never heard of.  Unfortunately the £3 I saved, paid me back with a vengeance and I spent the second half of the night nursing the toilet bowl and experiencing that manic head spinning pain only paint stripper could do to you.

Cocktails at Las Iguanas The O2 arena

Cocktails at Las Iguanas The O2 arena

School nights has never stopped me from having cocktails but Tuesday night cocktails seemed positively rebellious.  However it was no ordinary Tuesday as me and my brother-in-law Tom were at the O2 to see Nicki Minaj.
