THE KING RETURNS TO SHAAHS – 9^th June 2010

Elvis is dead, long live the King - in Cookham!

Diners at Shaahs restaurant in Cookham are in for a royal treat on 9^th June, when Elvis is jetting in once again to perform a live show.

Well, actually it's the great Elvis tribute Scott, and he'll be driving from Kent but Scott's rendition of Elvis's golden oldies is so authentic, diners will be able to close their eyes and imagine they're listening to the King himself- without having to go all the way to Las Vegas (or travel beyond the grave).

Since opening last year, Shaahs has created quite a stir on the culinary scene. With a growing reputation for fine Indian dining in sophisticated and atmospheric surroundings, the restaurant's special brand of gourmet food that originated in the courts of the Moghul Emperors, is now tantalising the tastebuds of diners in Cookham and beyond.

The Elvis night comes as part of owner Mr Shah's programme of exciting evenings that will take place at the restaurant throughout the year.

"Elvis Presley was such an iconic performer and most people have a place in hearts for his music,"says Mr Shah, "I wanted to recreate some of that magic within my restaurant. The combination of Elvis's music and with Shaahs food will guarantee an unforgettable dining experience."

With a quiff to end all quiffs, swivelling hips and a melting baritone, Scott's Elvis will perform a full repertoire of Elvis's hits including Love Me Tender, Hound Dog and Are You Lonesome Tonight?

Shaahs' Big Hunk of Love costs only £25 including 3 course dinner and after feasting to their hearts content, no doubt There’ll Be a Little Less Conversation when diners can pull on their Blue Suede Shoes, get on the dance floor and work off some of their sumptuous meal, down At the Hop.
