Med School and Life: Dinner at Jamon Jamon

We went out to dinner at Jamon Jamon for one of my friend's 22nd Birthday. The food was good, the company was even better- it was a nice break from revision!

New Ted Baker top from a visit to Bicester Village this Saturday, thanks Mum! :D

Jamon Jamon is a Spanish Tapas restaurant. There are three dotted across central London. The restaurant had a slight Spanish feel to the deco. The walls was decorated with the restaurant's name and there was a wine rack at the top of the walls, which I thought was an interesting touch. They had an open skylight, which was lovely to sit under, but the view was not great out of it. Camden is a bit cramped and we could see next door's 1st floor (or 2nd if you are not British) window. The skylight was nicely decorated around with hanging pot plants. This was a ambient scenic backdrop to our dinner, something quite different to the blaring of horns and busy people passing by just outside!

I haven't seen some of these nice people for a while for a proper chat, and it was so nice to just talk and bond and laugh with them. We are all so busy and our different clinics schedules separates us from meeting up as much as we'd like to. Also, it's exam season, which is something I might have mentioned (or whined incessantly about) in my last post.

Okay, so the important part, FOOD. I may have invaded several of my friend's space while taking these pictures and they still aren't that good photos unfortunately... I think a DSLR camera might be on the next birthday/Christmas present list...

Also, is it just me or is it always so awkward to order food at European restaurants?! I can never pronounce the words properly and I just end up pointing to the menu like an idiot. When I do try and pronounce it, the waiter will say it back to me properly with a lovely sounding accent and I just end up feeling super uncultured. Now as I'm writing this, I realised I should have let my friend order as she had a term of Spanish lessons... D'oh!
