Adam and I had a lovely dinner at Mykonos Greek Restaurant in London before heading to Aeolian Hall to see Madison Violet — the kind of evening that feels both special and easy.

The red wine deserves a mention right away: not too sweet, beautifully smooth, and perfect for lingering over conversation. The warmed olives? Absolute yum — simple, fragrant, and impossible to stop picking at.

We shared a platter, and honestly, it was perfect. Generous, balanced, and ideal if you want to sample a bit of everything without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.

To finish, we ordered Greek coffee, very similar to Turkish coffee — potent, bold, and not for the faint of heart — but exactly right alongside the deconstructed baklava. Rich, sweet, and just the right amount after such a satisfying meal.

A wonderful start to a great night of music. Cozy, flavourful, and worth returning to.
