Three More To Try
Looking for some inspiration closer to (or possibly further from) home? Take your pick these buzzy restaurants around the UK.
TATTU
Whether it's a date night or a night out with the girls this glamorously glossy bar and restaurant in Manchester delivers. Sample cool cocktails in the darkened bar and fabulously decadent Chinese food (think wagyu, lobster and foie gras) under the shade of a giant pink cherry tree in the upstairs room. OTT it may be – but in a thoroughly good way.tattu.co.uk
The Finishing Touch:This spot is all about the glam, so show yours off with a classic dark red nail, courtesy of Rimmel London Super Gel in 'Venus'.
EL CARTEL
Think you know Mexican food? Edinburgh's El Cartel restaurant serves signature fresh, handmade Mexican streetfood served up in a buzzing room decked out in Day of the Dead chic will make you think again. Guacamole finished with pomegranate seeds sets the scene for the plethora of unusual fusion flavours to come. Kick things off with one of the house margaritas churning in the slushy machines at the bar and you're good to go.elcartelmexicana.co.uk
The Finishing Touch: Flavours this punchy deserve nails to match. Work a hip Mexico City vibe with Rimmel London Super Gel in 'Urban Purple'.
BELLITA
Fresh, seasonal tapas that draw inspiration from Spain, North Africa and the Middle East lead the menu in this stylish new Bristol eatery. The mood is fun but mellow with tunes coming courtesy of a sterling vintage vinyl collection. The Drinks Cabinet – a series of drinks-led tasting events, such as the recent Va-Va-Va-Vermouth evening – is a Bellita speciality and a great way to get together with friends for some food-and-drinks-based fun. Keep an eye on the website for details.bellita.co.uk
The Finishing Touch:Tap into the modern retro vibe with Rimmel London Super Gel in 'Grape Sorbet'.
