We spent Monday lounging. The staff at The House are absolutely fantastic and we're feeling very pampered. After a champagne breakfast we headed to the pool deck where over the course of the day we had an ice bucket of bottled water, cold towels and ice cream delivered to us. After a spot of afternoon tea we asked for dinner recommendations and were booked into Spago's and packed into a taxi at the appropriate hour.
Spago's was fantastic! It had a tiny deck and a fairly intimate inside space. S was huffing a little as we'd been seated inside, but I was happy. We were by the shutters and by the window which meant a cross-breeze...perfect as it was about 30-odd degrees and 90% humidity. Even more perfect when, a few minutes later, it began to rain. And I don't mean pitty-patty rain... This was monsoon-like rain and had everyone on the deck charging inside as it was raining somewhat sideways (Scottish rain!) and the awning was sagging under the volume of water.... Even we were getting rained on and we were INSIDE the restaurant!!
