Aquavit Restaurant. Calling all the shots.
Aquavit Restaurant.
Calling all the shots. Tuesday 16th October.
The Michelin stars were out last week it’s easy to see how this fine establishment has earned its one-star rating.
The sublime Stockholm room creates a welcome to all, fuelled by views over the dramatic restaurant downstairs. Boldly decorated in arts and crafts prints and bespoke wood trim by London-based interior architect Martin Brudnizki (another Swedish talent!) Brudnizki also designed the over-the-top and outrageously out there Annabel’s – the most Instagrammed club of this year. Quite how an owner could say – yup I’ll have that interior because it’s so bonkers I really don’t know – its times like that you just have to run with it and trust the talent.
The talented Mr Brudnizki’s interior truly did provide the perfect backdrop for our boisterous and confident crew. On arrival Kitty the General Manager and able bar supremo treated our singles to super-chilled Prosecco, the perfect perk-me-up. The treats didn’t stop there: we munched through the freshest and most delicate canapés you’ve ever seen – including Västerbotten tart, Shrimp Skagen, fennel, onion and caraway tarts and liver pate with pickled cucumber. Hmm, might have overdone the latter, but hey the room was buzzing with conversation and dare I mention flirtation.
It’s no wonder the name of the restaurant comes from Aquavit a flavoured distilled spirit, that the Germans call Schnapps; like the French ‘eau-de-vie’, aquavit means ‘water of life’. Delicious, but in a rocket-fuel kind of way!
What a high-spirited crowd, they had great fun hatching plans with old friends and welcoming
over 20 new people who soon became immersed into the group like treasured and respected friends.
We are so looking forward to our last event of this year on the 27th of November. It really has been a pleasure running Rendezvous this year.
It wasn’t just the Rendezvous team who had such an amazing time at Aquavit on Tuesday, thank you so much for sending us such lovely feedback.
Good morning B, I just wanted to say thank you for another great Rendezvous evening. There was a lovely mix of people and the energy in the room was high.
