In the evening, I head out to Willesden Junction, where Jackie lives, to meet her for dinner again. She brings along a friend too, Taran, a Kiwi visiting from Bath. This time, we meet at a quite new Brazilian restaurant called Amber Grill. Here there is a buffet of salads, vegetables, and some fish and chicken, but the main event is that they have meat cooking on large metal skewers on a BBQ, which they bring to the table one by one, and cut pieces off as you request. There’s quite a variety, and we try all of it, including sausages, various beef cuts, lamb and chicken heart. We all cautiously try a heart; they are small and chewy, not my personal favourite but I’ve had worse.
After dinner, to return to my hotel, I brave the buses, as that it far quicker than using the train. It is more difficult at night, in a strange town, knowing where to stop the bus. But I managed alright. Phew!
