"I am busy preparing to leave for my honeymoon today, but we had such an extraordinary experience that I had to take a break from laundry, packing and cleaning to get a review out. When I checked in last night, I noticed that Oaka only had one review. My husband is a pub geek, which means that I am now a pub geek by marriage. We went on a mid week pub crawl in Kennington last night, and as we left the house, I was mentioning my hunger. Chris recalled that Oaka (our second stop on the tour) had food, so on the way to Kennington, we looked up the menu online. We didn't even get to the mains, and had already decided on several things from the bar menu (Gap glam) that we wanted. As we were on a pub crawl, we started off with a pint. The selection was vast. Our usual trend is for Chris to select two and let me try them and decide which I'd like. Usually he prefers the other one, so it works out. I chose the JHB as my favourite, and really enjoyed it. One thing to note on this section is that Oaka does 1/3 (such a cute little baby glass) and 2/3 pints. We ordered the Vegetarian Gap glam platter for two, which came with crispy spiced aubergines, tempura vegetables, thai spring rolls and curried pumpkin gyoza. Two sauces came on the side for dipping a sweet chili sauce with peanuts and a wasabi soy sauce. We also got an order of thai fries. Everything was very good. Crazy good. When we were done eating (everything was gone) we were sad that there wasn't more. We were full, but still wanted more. I think that says something. Can't wait to go back. But right now... I better get back to honeymoon prep!"
