Flames broke out inside the Sultan's Table restaurant chimney just after 7.30pm tonight, powering their way through the building's roof and causing 10 diners to flee.

"It was a big bang and the whole sky lit up," she said.
"The whole roof was heavily on fire.
"I went over to the restaurant next door to tell them Sultan's was on fire, so they could turn their kitchen off."
Ms Sundgren said the ordeal attracted massive crowds.
She said one of the diners told her the staff yelled "grab your drinks and leave".
The whole of Enmore Road was closed, causing major disruption to the busy dining drag.
Everyone inside the building was accounted for and no injuries were reported.
Investigations into what caused the fire are underway.

"A lot of these injuries require significant rehabilitation in hospital and surgical intervention," Lachlan Parker from Queensland Ambulance Service said.
"Sometimes there's psychological impacts with these animal bites as well."
Dejana Durdevic, a dog behaviour trainer with the RSPCA, said prevention is key, encouraging people and particularly children to ask for permission from owners before touching their pets.
"If they stay back-leave them," she said.
"Say hi, keep walking."
She added owners can also keep an eye on their dog's behaviour to reduce the risk of attacks.
"Watch their stress levels," Ms Durdevic said.
"Watch their body language."
