Dinner at Big Easy BBQ in Covent Garden

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

On the Friday before Christmas, the bloke and some friends and I had arranged to see 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' at the IMAX at Waterloo. We were booked in to see the midnight showing, so we had some time to spend and decided to have dinner at Big Easy BBQ in Covent Garden. This is a venue that I have been wanting to visit for some time. We ordered a tonne of food and managed to eat most of it. Chicken, pulled pork, steak, brisket, corn bread, baked beans, and chips were on the menu. The glaze used was tasty, and we also had the choice of several dozen (at least) beers/ales in the well-stocked bar.

The restaurant was smaller than I expected it to be, and it was also popular. There's seating on the ground floor as well as in the basement with industrial lighting. Seating was a little cramped for us, but we managed in this American-style BBQ restaurant. I'd visit it again.

After our wander around, we headed into Covent Garden to see the decorations and then headed to cocktail bar Frevd and a hotel for drinks in Seven Dials. At Frevd, we had the Chinese Lantern (Midori, grenadine, peach, lemon, apple) Zombie (rum, orange, pineapple, lemon), and the Frevd special. At the hotel on Monmouth Street, we had cocktails named 'Pumpkin Pie', 'Snow Drop', and a few other winter and autumn-themed drinks. After the drinks, we walked to IMAX to see 'Star Wars'.

I was underwhelmed during the first viewing of the film on its opening night, but I enjoyed my second viewing at the IMAX.
