[POTD] Pic of the Day

Taken at Casa Blue, a bar at the end of Brick Lane, decorated in a haphazard style with rugs from Afghanistan (featuring AKs, Mi-24s and BMPs) hung on the walls, random furniture, huge wax-encrusted candles, arabic ornamental brass lampshades and so on. Souk fashion. Including a hookah pipe. With the addition of a cocktail menu (hence the mojito glasses that provide the foreground subject of this image.

Can you still smoke hookahs in Arabic restaurants these days, or has the smoking ban put paid to the hubble-bubble?

They've got a small area of pavement outside, roped off with red velvet ropes on brass stands, with a couple of comfy chairs. I believe that's the smoking lounge, whatever they're smoking.
