Oh yeah, at Carablanca on Friday they pushed the tables on the right hand side WELL in from the wall, and raked them, so that officious punters couldn't shove them back. It worked really well, you could walk right round the back of them for the whole evening and get where you wanted to be without being in the way of the dancers, and it makes the dancefloor a more manageable shape.
Also they had a very good DJ, Luca Lamberti (from Italy so I assume he's only visiting) and they serve cheap cocktails.
It makes me wonder why it took so long. Love the cocktails, try the empanadas, the vegetarian ones are delicious.
ReplyDeleteI tend not to feel hungry enough at that time of night for an empanada, but I often appreciate that they have sugary mints too.
ReplyDeleteExcellent - I suggested that to Danny a couple of months ago, I'm glad he bit the bullet and did it.
ReplyDeleteNow all we need to do is start a similar "Give me a walkway" campaign for Negrachas :)
Just to add, I went to Cara on Friday, and I think the "gap" thing is slowly working.
ReplyDeleteI naturally walked along the gap, without even thnking about it, to navigate around; it was a real improvement in the layout.
The floor didn't feel at all cramped; in fact, I reckon you could squeeze it in even further and there'd be no problem.
