WHADDA think OF this?

bar salsa

baralsa

Arrive at 6pm for your Salsa dance class, where you can expect to learn Salsa, Merengue and Lambada in lively Latin style. If you're a beginner, no need to worry as the whole room will be dancing with you, so relax and let your hair down!
The Salsa lesson will wind down at 7pm when you will be seated for your welcome drink and included tapas style meal (2 hour limit on tables).

For those of you who simply can't stop moving, there'll be plenty of time to put your new skills into practice as the party carries on until 2am with a live Latin band and a DJ playing the best in Latin and Commercial Dance.

The menu is as follows:

Starters:
Paprika nachos with homemade salsa dip
Selection of char-grilled breads with flavoured oils
Chilli chicken wings, oven baked and smothered in Louisiana sauce
Roasted chilli ribs with roast pepper jam
Crumbled tender calamari, deep fried with a homemade salsa dip
Cuban potato wedges with smoked chilli and sundried tomato mayo
Oven baked spicy chorizo enchilada with black beans
Chorizo and fresh mozarella tortilla pizza

Main Course:
Fajitas served in a double skillet for 2 people, all served sizzling with Spanish onions and green and red peppers, with warm tortillas, guacamole, Rio cheese, sour cream and homemade salsa
Choose from char-grilled chicken or beef or vegetarian fajitas

Friday nights differ slightly with the dance class running from 6:30pm-8:00pm and dinner after the lesson.
