Blackstock Road
£8 for two
.5/5 Chillis
Didn't ask single or double
Garnish= Lemon slice
Pres= 1.5
Despite scoring low on almost all criteria, this nifty little number really delivered. The bar tender left the tabasco for our own taste, I added an additional 5 drops and it was still fully deserving of its half a chili tally.
It was a deceptively decent drop.
Upon asking the bar keep the ingredients, for I couldn't quite put my finger on some of its complex flavours- I was rebuffed! "It's a secret, I made it" were her words. She kept hold of her secrets, and I dont know what happened, but I walked away with two blueberry vodka shots!

Garnish= Lemon and grated horseradish.
.5 Chilli 1/5 presentation
Didn't ask if it was a single or double.
two for £7
Notes= Only the horseradish saves this from a dire effort, tasty enough but lacks spice, flair and was as if they couldn't be bothered.
overall 2/5 stars.
