Trendsetters!! (and didn’t even realize it)

After spending the late morning walking through Green and St. James’ Parks checking out how many daffodils were fooled by the mild winter (surprisingly more than I thought)… then an impromptu afternoon mini-pub crawl (sorry, but you can’t be a traditional pub if you offer free WiFi)… then venturing to St.George Tavern to watch England get absolutely SPANKED by Ireland in Six Nations Rugby… we decided to spend the evening in Kensington.

First we visited Bill Wyman’s Sticky Fingers restaurant for dinner before making our way over to Piano Kensington, a small little place that was the coolest evening we’ve had in a long time.

We were lucky enough to grab seats at the bar where we met and visited with the owner (and performer) Bazz Norton. Little did Amy realize that when she ordered that first Cosmopolitan that it would cause such a chain reaction. Seems the girly pink-hued cocktail in a martini glass caught the fancy of EVERY one else in the packed house. Toward the end of the evening, Bazz leaned over to the bartending staff and asked, “What the hell is with all the Cosmopolitans tonight?”

To which they just nodded their collective heads towards us and explained, “She started it!!”

Who knew?

Yummmmy--cosmo's!

Twigg said you wanted info about the silver vaults. Here's the link I found on google:
http://www.thesilvervaults.com/home.htm

Be sure and take ID--they'll get a copy of a picture ID for security.

They have silver jewelry, antiques and 200 year old place settings.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
