I have mentioned this place in a previous blog, but now I think it deserves it's own little review. A group of us from Turret ME went out to the Jazz Bar at the Hilton for a bite to eat, a couple of drinks, and a little dance. Were about 11 of us in all, and the company was great, which then doesn't really matter where you are. However the Jazz Bar is like the icing on the cake of a good night out.
We got to the Jazz Bar at about 8 and left at 2, and it felt like we were there for about half an hour. The food was great, a massive chicken Caesar salad to start with, with more chicken than salad. After that I didn't need any more food, and I didn't think I'd manage the main, but when the lamb chops came out, my appetite miraculously returned. They were fantastic!
The same house band were on, called N2 from Cape Town and they entertained as normal. The variation of songs was brilliant, Sexual Healing (Marvin Gaye) one minute to Mysterious Girl (Peter Andre) another minute. A naff song admittedly, but the reggae style rap the singer throws in half way through just makes you love it! And completely out of no where, they throw in a bit of Bon Jovi. Not one of their usual songs but I guess they did it as Bon Jovi were in concert here on Tuesday. An intimate venue of a couple of hundred people and the band had them screaming for more at 2am as if they were playing Wembley!
