"Good friends will ask you if you’re dating anyone at the moment. Great friends will let you trap them on a boat for four hours while you make the case that you haven’t been ghosted, someone is simply holding your beloved’s fingers hostage. Enter Caravel, a maroon converted barge that is both deeply charming and home to an impossibly smooth chicken liver pâté. It’s the kind of place where you can talk over candlelight for hours, safe in the knowledge that there’s an excellent blood orange jelly waiting at the end. There’s even a stained glass window depicting a pigeon doing its ‘business’, that you can stoically point at after your fourth glass of red and say ‘just like they shat on my heart’. Magical.
