Inamo Covent Garden

Hey Food Lovers,

We recently visited Inamo in Covent Garden for the 1st time and to our delight it was a great experience.

We arrived half an hour early for our booking yet was seated within minutes. From the service and the technology experience to the delicious tasting food, we were happy dinners.

The decor and layout felt very Tokyo/Hong Kong inspired. I truly loved the ipad and table computer ordering system, it was simple and allowed us to order continuously as the night went on if we fancied more.

We could also order drinks through the system which was brilliant and it is a really easy way to know how much the bill was going to be at the end of the night so there is no hanging around.

Through the Chef Cam you can see the kitchen right at your seat, which was nice to know you could check to see how your food was being handled (my inner investigator/nosey parker was thrilled my this service).

Our food came within 25 minutes as was delicious throughout. We began our order with Spicy Edamame followed with California Roll, Crunchy Tempura Prawn Maki, Duck with pancakes and two Lychee Martini’s.

This was more than enough food for two people and was really reasonably priced. We continued to order a few more cocktails and another portion of edamame throughout the evening. The staff where delightful and we was there until closing. They did not even rush us at the end (which they should have!).

I would highly recommend Inamo to any reader and friend. To conclude it is now in my top 3 favourite sushi place in London.

If you visit be sure to let us know your thoughts!.

Mirror Booth!

Events. Whether it’s a birthday, a Christmas party, a wedding, christening or engagement, whether it's a launch for a company or a fashion show; events are where memories are made and lost lasting impressions are created.

At Serenity London we believe in creating these magical events so that you can remember the events for a lifetime! Now, I’m sure many of us will go to hundreds and some even thousands of events in our lifetime and it will be probably hard to remember them all, right?

Now what a better way to capture an event... then by actually capturing it!

We met with Photographer and Mirror booth owner Evagoras and he showed us his amazing work and extraordinary (it really is) mirror booth! This was the first time we have seen one and we fell in love!

Now it’s as wonderful as a photobooth in the sense that it provides your guests with pictures they are instantly able to take away, it has all the props for good shots and it is a way for your guests to interact and have fun at any event. The difference is - it isn’t in booth form; simply an interactive touchscreen mirror that speaks to you! (& tells you how fabulous you look in your photos!)

It really is a unique addition to your event - it’s different, reasonably priced, self serviced, doesn’t take up a large amount of venue space, it has a quick put up and take down time and it’s owner is a warming and helpful gentleman who, like us, understands the logistics and importance of creating memorable events for clients.

So if you want a photographer and/or mirror booth for your event get in contact with us today at events@serenitylondon.co.uk or calling us on 0208-008-2780!

Below are some images of the booth, enjoy!

Georgina Day MUA

I was recently asked to be a bridesmaid at a family wedding (I have been a bridesmaid maybe 1000 times when I was younger - it’s just so much more daunting when you’re an adult). Along with many other jobs and responsibilities given to me from the bride, I also had the job of finding a MUA to create the look for the special occasion. Now - I hold my hands up - I have no clue about how to do my own makeup, I know how I want to look, but not how to achieve it. This also makes me very fussy. Previously I have had some horrors with some makeup artists that end up making me look like a clown because they don’t listen to me (If you’re a makeup artist reading this - PLEASE start listening to your clients). I end up feeling so bad for them as they have spent so long creating this ‘masterpiece’ that I just want to wipe off.

Anyway - there is a happy ending to this blog - Thank God!

I reached out to my friend (this particular one as she is actually fussier than me) for any recommended make up artist for my subtle glam look. She recommended a makeup artist called Georgina Day.

I reached out to Georgina who was able to schedule me in pretty quick and also offered me some suggestions on possible looks for the day - her pricing was so reasonable and she was able to come to me with no problems.

The day arrived and Georgina was well in time and waited patiently for me to return from my hair appointment. She was welcoming and warm and set up in no time. Before she started she asked me the exact look I wanted to go for. She also asked me if there was anything makeup wise that I didn’t like. After my list of do’s and dont’s she got started, frequently checking that her products matched my skin tone, working with different looks and trying products out that best matched my skin. Having a stranger in front of you starring in your face for the good part of an hour and a half can be quite intimidating - but Georgina made it a pleasant experience and we spent the whole time chatting away about the wedding, our jobs and what else we had planned for the weekend. She was done in good time and I absolutely LOVED my look.

It was just as I imagined - a flawless finish but a subtle look in all. I’m not a person who likes eyeshadow or a really strong lip colour and even though every makeup artist that i’ve worked with so far forces me into trying it out - Georgina listened and I can honestly say I was 100% happy with my look (and wasn’t planning the quickest route to my make up wipes!).

I would 100% recommend Georgina for any event that you require make up for - she is a sweet, humble and professional makeup artist that pays attention to you and is a perfectionist in her field.

Thank you Georgina - you made me a very happy bridesmaid & I look forward to working with you again!
