Vivek Singh Launches The Butcher Bar at Anise
Cinnamon Kitchen is launching a rather primal pop-up: The Butcher Bar at Anise in the City. From carnivorous cocktails that include bacon-infused buffalo trace to a bloodthirsty butcher’s block of choice game.
Lounge Lover
In general Lounge Lover looks like the interior of Mark Anthony “Baz” Luhrmann’s mind, a riot of camp, colour and devil may care eccentricity with small private rooms tucked exotically away off the main drag.

Pescatori is special in an unshowy way. The people who eat there are eating for pleasure, not because it’s this week’s must eat place, and that’s how restaurants in London used to be. Yes a lot of its lunchers are on expense accounts, but at Pescatori they are also the kind of people who radiate bonhomie not faux boredom

With a firm shake and a sharp tap – we go behind the scenes at KFC to learn more about this high street brand and to cook in its kitchens. The original recipe mix is moving with these low salt times but is just as delicious, as Joanna Biddolph discovered.
