Salsateca London and Ola Latina run a regular event called El Bembe every 2nd Saturday of the month at The Bottlescrue, 33 Foster Lane, London EC2V 6HD. Sometimes there’s one on the 4th Saturday too. There is parking in the streets nearby from 7pm onwards. The venue offers plenty of space for dancing in the main salsa room formed by 3 rectangular areas surrounding the dining tables down the middle of the room. Social dancing is from 9:15pm to 2am and there is a small room reserved for bachata which they call The Bachata Box and believe me it usually contains many sensual delights!
Philip WakeSometimes a lady turns me down for a dance but later after seeing me dance with somebody else changes her mind. That happened a few times tonight and always makes me smile! 😉

Philip WakeI left just after midnight because I felt hungry which is amazing as on the way from Gosport I ate a whole packet of cashew nuts (200g) and a whole packet of figs (200g). I really fancied some chips but made do with a large tin of chickpeas, another packet of cashew nuts and a whole bar of dark chocolate. That’s nearly 3000 kcal and when I got home I needed a large banana to finish me off! 😉 Like:Chris Diamond
