A little birdie told me the cyber hub regulars have a new favourite. A snazzy Caribbean themed lounge “Raastaâ€. The place has gained popularity with its reggae superstars bob Marley, jimmy Hendrix, and bob Dylan gracing the walls. The young party goers have formed a keen attachment to this place cause of its character and superb service. Besides the great Caribbean food they hold live gigs and karaoke nights to keep you in the mood. Loud and musical variations of bob.
Marley is amusing to hear with the purple haze inside you. Raasta have devised concoctions like bongtails served in hukka glass to keep you hazy through the night. Classic LIITs are most ordered drinks. The pitcher with meeze platter and Caribbean chicken strips will suit you well if you are partying with the gang. They have innovative menu with jalapeno cheese cigars, raastawich, rum spiked lamb bongs and Caribbean oven roasted potatoes. To fill you up they offer fish and chips, classic mama’s Jamaican jerk chicken, jambalaya and assorted pizzas. The menu is wide with entrees which can be eaten as main if you want to fill your tummy with pitcher of drinks. The raastapasta section contains classic pasta with main sauces. But the dessert part will leave you swooning with delight. Sticky toffee pudding and Cuban flan can be enjoyed in the outdoor sitting area smoking on your hukka or a simple cool beer.
The patio is preferred by the crowd for it gives an awesome view of the hub. This Cuban night will not even cut a deep hole in your account. Within fifteen hundred you will have a wonderful evening attended on the waiting and happy staff. The crooning jimmy Hendrix romances you reminding you of swaying beaches of Caribbean islands and pleased crowd will make you glad to be there. Raasta is a lovely addition to this hustle bustle of the hub. Red, green, gold walls and witty signage portrays a rebel theme. The lounge is comfortable and summons you to come again.
