Street Food Masterclasses at L’atelier des Chefs

Just like afternoon tea and drinks after work, Londoner’s love of street food looks like it is set to stay.

Cookery school, L’atelier des Chefs is now giving diners the chance to learn how to create their own street food, with some street food masterclasses this summer. Every day at 1pm you can master a classic street food dish in a […]

Portrait Restaurant Review – What We Thought

What: Audrey Hepburn inspired menu Where: The Portrait Gallery Why you should go there: Favourite thing we ate: Veal and ricotta meatballs If there is one thing I would like to have more of it would be poise. I have about as much grace as small baby elephant which in other words is zero. With this in mind, I went off to the National Portrait Gallery to visit the Audrey Hepburn exhibition, because if anyone could teach me how to be more elegant it would be the actress, dancer and philanthropist who reminded us that Paris never needs a reason and that the […]

Paradise Garage Opening In Bethnal Green

There are a lot of different ideas about what ‘paradise’ is…some will tell you it’s a religious haven, others will say it’s lying on a sunny beach, but here at The Handbook, paradise equals tasty food, good drinks and a great atmosphere. Lucky for us then, that Robin Gill and his team (who are the people behind The Dairy & The Manor in Clapham) are launching a new restaurant venture on Paradise Row, appropriately named Paradise Garage. The venue will be built inside an old railway arch, giving it a cool retro vibe and the service promises to be relaxed […]

Things Are Getting Surreal At Artesian

Here at The Handbook, we like to think of ourselves as very cultured and we are very much interested in deep, meaningful pursuits like posing in front of pictures at the Tate Modern in order to rack up those Instagram likes. One way in which the world of art and the avant-garde can be pretty easily accessed though is through our love of good cocktails. The Artesian bar is helping us to brush up on our culture knowledge with the introduction of its new cocktail menu, which is inspired by one of the greatest avant-garde movements of the 20th century, […]
