Bouga (1 Park Road, London, N8 8TE) This is probably the worst restaurant I have ever been to in London. 20 of us went on Saturday night. We were told to pre-order the week before, but upon arrival were told the menu had changed so would have to order again. When a couple of ordered Cobras beers did not arrive, we were told they had run out, but later in the evening saw one of the waiters walking around with two bottles. When questioned, the waiter just got angry with us. It took an hour for orders to be taken, two hours from arriving for starters to be served, and to top it off, one main was served instead of a starter, and several mains turned up 20mins after the mains. Some of the chicken meals were also completely cold and very stingy portions. A belly dancer appeared in the middle of the meal, which was fine until she suddenly produced a live snake which she also draped around some guests shoulders. For half of us, this was plain terrifying and also unhygenic in a restaurant. Seriously one to avoid. If you want good Moroccan food, go to Souk Medina in Covent Garden or Moro in Exmouth Market
