Duke Box, Kings Road, Fulham
Who was there - Abbey and Peter Crouch and pals, who despite being on a VIP table joined the masses and bopped with us for a good chunk of the night!
Why we showed up - A friend of ours had said she was once refused entry because of a private footballer's party going on in here...it sounded so A list. If footballers party there, we figured it must be worth a (saturday night) shot!
What we liked - the stripy, retro-inspired fish bowls (although they are square!). They are big enough to fit a plethora of straws in (and more...) and will keep you and your table quiet (or not!) for a while. Also check out the discreet secret booths covered in reflective mirror-glass at the back of the club!
Make sure you - try the mini burgers. We originally kicked up a fuss when we were told they were a tenner each ('we could gobble it in one!"). But MT soon shut her, erm, burger hole when she sunk her nashers into this gourmet delight! 'Best burger ever!' ...to this day
Avoid - if you are after a quiet night (a restaurant it definitely isn't...). Plus, "if you aren't on the guestlist (unless you are glitterati finest) you definitely aren't coming in.' Be prepared to be shooed away too, if you don't look the part. Rumour had it, one girl got turned down for wearing undesirable tights !
