IT’S SUMMER and summer means Zouk. Here’s how to make the most of the holiday season.

Nothing beats ice-cold quenchers like these

Dine Outdoors

When the sun shines, there’s nowhere better than Zouk’s terrace for outdoor dinner and drinks. Settle into a sumptuous booth and let the calming bamboo and lush tropical plants transport you to a far-off paradise. If the unpredictable British weather changes its mind, it needn’t put a dampener on your day. At the touch of a button, the roof rolls over the all-weather terrace, keeping you cosy inside.

Keep Hydrated

Catching rays can be thirsty work so don’t forget to refresh yourself with one of Zouk’s exquisite summery cocktails. Nothing beats ice-cold quenchers like these:

Strawberry Daiquiri – summer in a glass
Porn Star Martini – fruity and tropical, it’s a classic for a reason
Tamarind Margarita – short, sharp and punchy
Chai Martini – a special combination of cardamom-infused iced chai and Absolut vodka
Cucumber Cooler – the quintessential summer drink with gin, what else?

Eat Heat

A hot day calls for a hot curry. No, wait, come back. Before you rush off looking for ice cream, listen to the science. A spicy meal makes you sweat which helps to regulate your body temperature and we’ve got some spicy beauties for you to enjoy this summer:

Railway Curry – a hot, hot, hot lamb dish with fresh green chillies and red Kashmiri chillies too
Chicken Jalfrezi – juicy meat in a famous spicy sauce, it’s delicious with a splash of yoghurt if it all gets too much
Lamb Nihari – think thick, think spicy, think slow-cooked heaven
Chicken Khabani – searing heat, aromatic spices and the sweetness of apricots
Seafood Special – prawns and succulent haddock cooked with mushrooms and pomegranate in a luscious spicy sauce

If you’re still feeling hot under the collar, Zouk has air-conditioning and a beautiful outdoor terrace where you can enjoy the breeze.

Be Playful

It’s the summer holidays so take the kids. They’ll love Zouk, especially when they find out they can play Pokemon Go. Or, if you’re young at heart, get hunting too. The outdoor terrace has free wi-fi and from the restaurant you can access one Poke Stop ‘maths cage’.

Get That Back-To-School Excitement

Summer is for playing and September is about learning. It’s the yin and yang that makes life fun. Zouk’s summer cookery classes are all fully-booked but if you act fast, you can secure a place on one of their September courses. Here’s what’s coming up:
