Alea Casino and Tchai Ovna House of Tea at Hungama Multicultural Festival

Springfield Quay will be featuring some great highlights from Alea Casino and Tchai Ovna House of Tea when it holds the Hungama Multicultural festival on the 7th June 2009, 11am-9pm.

Both have agreed to join in the festivities by doing what they do best.

Alea Casino will be offering to “Learn to Play” casino tables teaching festival-goers the basics and tricks to survive in the games of Poker and Blackjack. Over 18s will be given entry into the Alea Prize Draw which will see some lucky person win a £100 of M&S vouchers; to be announced at 3pm on the day. Also on offer are complimentary Mocktails which will be served by bartenders as a tasty non-alcoholic alternative to your average drink of choice. Alea Casino will also give guests the opportunity to sign up and become a member of their casino with an added £10 free bet at their tables.

Tchai Ovna House of Tea will be selling their fantastic range of teas and offering guests the chance to try an Eastern form of smoking known as Shisha, outdoors at the event.

“Tchai-Ovna is Scotland's first shisha venue. Inspired by his travels Martin Fell and friends started serving shishas 8 years ago before shishas were even widely known in Scotland. Over the years, through experience and much advice from Arab customers Tchai-Ovna has perfected the technique of shisha preparation so that smokers can be assured of a relaxing enjoyable experience and now that Tchai-Ovna has expanded and beautified its outside area and garden you could be forgiven for believing you're in the middle of a desert oasis. We at Tchai-Ovna are happy to serve only the highest quality of tobacco, preferring the world acclaimed brand Al Fakher.” Tchai-Ovna 42 Otago Lane Glasgow G12 8PB www.tchaiovna.com
