Salla part two

Location: Soho
Countries: Greece, Turkey, Egypt among others
Cost: £3 before 11 and £5 after



Salla has been running for a while in Soho at Escape bar and I thought it was about time I went along to see how it compared to the old location at Highbury and Islington. 


The good news is that the price has gone down and the event frequency has gone up!  The new location seems to have made a huge difference too. Escape is quite small so it felt very busy. 



There was even a male belly dancer who performed in the middle of the dancefloor at one point.  And the music was as good as ever with several songs I recognised. I went along with a Turkish guy so kept asking him "is this song Turkish?"

London's only LGBT Mediterranean Club Night!

Countries: Greece, Turkey, Egypt among others
Cost: £7
Location: Higbury and Islington
Event Frequency: Monthly

www.salla.co.uk/3.html

Quite a small venue, not very busy when I went, which meant we had plenty of room to dance. It was like the DJ had broken into the secret soundtrack in my soul and played every song on the shelf.  Their website says they're London's only LGT Mediterranean Club Night.  If you know of another one, let me know and I will be there in a hearbeat!
