Inside Aqua - Kyoto or Nueva...?
Argyll Street brings back so many memories of living in Soho and Movida car shows (you know what I mean). The street has been paved beautifully and Aqua has found itself a vast space that overlooks Regents Street. With two restaurants to choose from: Kyoto (Japanese) and Nueva (Spanish) the place was very much buzzing! DT took me there so I chose Japanese...
DT is one of the few people that can pull off a white jacket. He is also one of the rarest Scottish people I have seen who actually tans rather than turn into a freshly cooked lobster.
I have much to say about this place, good and bad and.... but I truely believe you must go to experience it yourself.
A few tips to keep in mind:
-The bar/restaurants are on the 5th floor (the elevator only has two buttons)
-Host/hostess will tell you the restaurant is on the 5th floor
-DO NOT let the bartenders serve you their specialties unless you enjoy cucumber juice with gin
-Be prepared to hear a banker say 'Oh, I'm going to make that building my office', pointing at the Crown's property across the street
-Expect to walk half way across the 2 restaurants if you're heading to the ladies' room
Is it trying to be the new Nobu?
