Smirnoff gift packs – something a little different this Christmas
Retailing exclusively at Selfridges, Smirnoff have introduced two gift packs that could be the answer to one or more of your Christmas present worries this year.
The Inn At Hawnby – North Yorkshire
The Inn at Hawnby, North Yorkshire is not only celebrating its 10th anniversary, but awards and nominations galore! The Inn at Hawnby, formerly a Drovers Inn dating back to the 19th century, is in an idyllic setting, set on top of the hill of this picturesque village, in the Heart of the North York Moors National Parks.
Chinese Cricket Club, London
The Chinese Cricket Club is apparently named after the new Chinese National Cricket team who this year played its first international match. Ni hau? I am no sports afficionado but is this a good omen for a fledgling venture? What will stand it in good stead is that it’s located within the Crowne Plaza in London which already houses Giorgio Locatelli’s Refettorio restaurant.
The Covent Garden Market Place, Grocer, Deli, Cafe
The Covent Garden Market Place, Grocer, Deli, Cafe is so new I can still smell wood shavings from the fit out and polenta is definitely for sale, along with a whole host of foody things you lust after, while not always entirely sure what they are or what they do
The whisky the angels drink
Manager’s Choice is Diageo’s first complete collection of single-cast Scotch whiskies. Aimed at collectors and connoisseurs it’s been chosen over time, and by the expert managers, to represent each of the 27 distilleries authentic whisky signatures. Unique and delicious they make the perfect present for the man who has everything and a special date coming up.

Just One Pot -Great food, less fuss
One pot meals? Hmm that’s going to mean a load of old casseroles isn’t it? Those sludgy brown meals that always have at least one carrot bobbing about like a torpedoed Noel Coward going down in the North Atlantic. Well actually, no. Just One Pot has pushed the definition.
