If you’ve got your ear to the luxury openings ground then you’ll know that the ultimate pin-up, Raffles Singapore, has finally reopened. Flaunting its new look, like a celeb post botox, Raffles has caught the attention of those who revel in the finer things in life. The heritage hotel is celebrated for its colonial-style frontier, as well as being the birthplace for the lip-smacking Singapore Sling! Raffles opened its doors in 1887, named after the founder of Singapore and British Malaya, Sir Stamford Raffles. Inside it’s like a journey through many an era, traversing the romantic, to the Neo-Renaissance, to […]
We’re just thinking out loud about something… namely Ed Sheeran’s new restaurant which apparently is a thing. Sneaky Ed has apparently bought a restaurant somewhere in London, rumoured to be Notting Hill, which is unsurprising seeing as Ed loves hills so much (Castle on the HILL and all that). But, aside from this thin on the ground info, we know little else! Ed has teased us with an Insta post, as celebs often do, and has shared a bottle of Ketchup on the gram. This could be because his restaurant will be about all things ketchup, given how much Ed […]
The Hilton enterprise is extending, and Paris is most likely laughing as she purchases another $65,000 custom Birkin.

If the choux fits… Everyone’s always harping on about how good the buttery croissant is, or that you can’t beat a spinachy spanakopita. Yeah, yeah, they’re good but why’s nobody talking about the classic éclair? The world’s first choux pastry specialist patisserie is fighting back, spreading the pastry love to the busy goers of Canary Wharf, with their latest venue opening in Canada Place. You won’t be choux-ing away from Canary Wharf during rush hour any longer as this August Maître Choux will be serving up pastry treats to bustling office workers, tourists and passersby at their all new patisserie […]
We’re feeling pretty old right now, knowing that Heinz have been around for a whopping 150 years. Sheesh! Their beans are the little orange treats that lather our toast in the morning and flood our baked potatoes and, quite simply, we still can’t get enough a century and a half later… So, to celebrate, Covent Garden will play host to the world’s first official Beanz Muzeum! The beans boffins will whack open the doors to the museum at the end of August, shouting a big ol’ happy birthday to the OAP that is Heinz, turning 150! You’ll get the opportunity […]
We simply adore Corrigan’s Mayfair. Think quintessential British and Irish cuisine fused with seasonal produce and chef Richard’s culinary prowess, so good in fact that we return time and time again to catch a taste of that Irish charm. Richard Corrigan is famed for his stalwart eateries, loved by many, which include Bentley’s Oyster Bar and Grill and the previously mentioned Corrigan’s Mayfair. Set to open in September, his new venture will sit just off buzzy Old Street and, we’re told, will venture deeper into seasonal influences with a a direct connection to the chef’s farm at Virginia Park Lodge […]

Ooo Mama! We’re so excited about this opening – Big Mamma opened Circolo Popolare in Fitzrovia and boy is a whopper of a resto.
