Brunch; it’s that time of day we rid ourselves of last night’s debauchery by downing Bloody Mary’s, and feast our appetites and Insta feeds on avocado on toast like it’s going out of fashion. Knowing that there’s a bunch of brunch addicts in every single one of us...
Don’t get me wrong, I could waffle up Ikea meatballs until the cows (and pigs, inexplicably they’re made from both) come home, but that’s not quite what we’re talking about here. The department store in-house restaurant has come a long way since it was a case of grab a...
ASMR aka ‘brain tingles’ or ‘braingasms’ are trending more than the Ellen Degeneres Oscar’s selfie did at present. But what on earth is it? Well, simply put, ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and relates to the feelings people experience as a result of certain...
There’s something incredibly British about eccentricity. When we hear about John Mytton, who arrived at a dinner party riding his pet bear, or John Churchill, the WW2 officer who fought the Germans with his bow and arrow and a broadsword, we smile and indulge. This would cause consternation...

Despite being a “school night,” going down for a gin-fuelled dinner at one of London’s latest luxury offerings was definitely something we weren’t prepared to miss, especially when the views included that of The Shard, amidst London’s concrete jungle surroundings. Both...
To gin or not to gin? That is the question. However it is also a question that should always return the answer yes, especially when it involves ginning in somewhere like this new Enchanted Garden, courtesy of South Place Hotel. In a nod to the change of seasons the bar will open up on the 11th of...
It’s the biggest exhibition of the year, Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams at the V&A and to celebrate the legendary designer these five hotels have created limited edition cocktails, afternoon teas and menus and the chance to get your hands on tickets which are selling as fast as...
Old MacDonald had a farm, but did he have a range of petting zoos, a park filled with parakeets and cafe’s adorned with fluffy cats? No, we think not. London on the other hand does have all these things, with a herd of sheep stroking, pig patting and cow cuddling spots that look blooming...
