Inside it’s unassuming,
While the atmosphere is buzzing.
With the rhythms of instruments playing,
10 North behind the scene is flaming.
Then comes the patron,
Welcoming and patient.
Tending to each anxious need
10 North is the place to feed.
The order is placed,
While I stare in each savoury face;
To see the lips moving
And sense the flavours chewing.
Not long before I pause,
There to my table falls.
A delightful, inspired work of art
10 North, with tender care each part.
Before long I too will feel,
The taste of the flavours revealed.
For in the plates discovered,
Is a taste not recovered?
Anywhere else I have been.
10 North with its flavours is a win.
