Number 49 : Miss Sophie

If I had of magically appeared inside Miss Sophie without having walked in off the street then I never would have guessed where I was. I loved the design of this place, it had the feel of a country club from the 1930's and at the same time was very relaxed and casually exclusive. 



The food was extremely good and freshly prepared. Most of the food is grilled over a fire and then presented eye-catchingly on a plate. The menu consisted of just meat dishes although vegetarian was available on request. The wine list and cocktail list was very well stocked and the evening on the food and drink front certainly did not disappoint. 


The service was polite and professional but on the downside was very slow and the staff almost seemed overworked. It took a long time to take our orders and a few things were forgotten along the way. That aside though a very pleasant experience.

Number 48 : Amazing Thai

Sad to say but Amazing Thai did not in my opinion live up to its name. Having said that though the interior was probably one of the nicest Thai restaurants I have been to. Wooden carvings and authentic Thai decorations made it a nice environment to dine in.


The food I thought was very ordinary and did nothing to excite me. The service was ok but not exceptional.

Number 47 : Athena

As I sat back in my chair with the Greek beer gently flowing through my body I gazed intensely at the mural on the wall.  Looking out at the sea, for a moment I almost could have been in The Mediterranean...


I enjoyed my evening at Athena. The service was really friendly and I though the food was nice as well. You can choose from traditional Greek dishes or a mixture of Greek / Spanish tapas dishes. One small complaint would be that the portion size wasn't so big but this just gave me an excuse to eat a dessert.


The restaurant was spacious and had a number of different rooms you could sit in. It was decorated to give that Greek style... Greek goddesses and vines on the walls added to the appeal. A pleasant evening, it is always nice to try somewhere a bit different.
