We had dinner out last night in the very quiet Mandrem which is about 10 minutes by cab from our increasingly lovely hotel.
We decided to go to arambol but got in the cab and said mandrem instead which is one beach down. We didn't realised our mistake till we couldn't find any night life or music!
Anyhow, mandrem is peaceful and we found a restaurant overlooking the sea with a big wooden bridge across the water from the sand to to the restaurant. The view was of darkness and just the sound of the sea. Really relaxing. We had to take our shoes off before we entered the restaurant which was quite quirky!
We ordered butter rice and prawns for Violet which she loved!
D and I had chicken tikka which was ok. fish tikka which wasn't nice, brindal bhagee (I think that's how you spell it but basically curried aubergine mmmmm)
And nann bread which they had covered in some sort of jam!
So not the best dinner but i washed it down with a water melon martini which helped.
Violet played with one of the dogs and D had a snooze overlooking the darkness.
We came back to Sur la mer where Violet of course thought it was pool time again! Errrr no!
We sat around the bar with the owner and some other men and the owner Aneel was telling us stories of when Mick Jagger stayed here with jade and he got mick to sing him "I can't get no satisfaction" with a left handed guitar and multiple times till mick shouted that he wasn't getting any f***in satisfaction and reeled off a list of pharmaceuticals that would help.
Violet wasn't going to sleep easy and I had to go back in the room to put her down, Come outside again and she's up again! D went in this time... The owner said to me "darling, go and look after princess so Dave can have his burger"
Firstly if there are hamburgers going why the hell has no one offered me? And secondly- I am not the Slave! We take equal turns around here!
Anyhow since Dave had a burger coming shortly and was going to be sitting with the men then I dutifully fulfilled my womanly role.
Yeah ds loving it out here.
