Proud Cabaret City
No.1 Mark Lane London EC3R 7AH
Probably the most decadent of the four lascivious digs of the Proud empire – mainly due to its top capital location. To give you a good idea, it's best described as an experience: a sexy assortment of teasing burlesque, red velvet, pink cocktails and dark lighting. Modelled on a 1920's Berlin speakeasy, expect glamour, glitter and pure raunchiness – from the girls on the stage to the girls on the bar. It's the type of place where you'll want to drink pink champagne, and the food isn't half bad either. They play it safe (but successful) with proper British dishes like the rack of lamb and panfried Salmon. Still you don't come somewhere like Proud just to sample the food. here you'll see all sorts from world famous hula hoop champions who can bend like they've misplaced their spine; or girls who can do things with firesticks that you can't even imagine. Overall, it's certainly something different – perhaps even eye-opening in a naughty, peeping tom sort of way.
