  • Break for lunch at Bibo, home to sophisticated Spanish fare 

    lunch time!

    Sometimes a Pret sandwich at your desk does not cut it, so I headed to Shoreditch’s Bibo to try its express tapas and a cheeky couple of glasses. The interior is beautifully done, with its wall-long copper kitchen glowing behind the central gilded bar, and shoals of white fish hung above the tables. This is [...]

  • New winemakers taking Macon by storm

    Wine wednesday

    The Macon has been referred to as “the unknown cousin of Burgundy”, but with prices soaring all over Bourgogne it is worth taking stock, literally, of these delicious wines and some of the bold, new winemakers taking over the region. Though Burgundy can be seen as the old-school seat of traditional winemaking, a younger generation [...]

  • Frenchie has a wine list perfect for long, indulgent lunches

    wine list

    On the cobbles of Covent Garden’s Henrietta Street, Frenchie is a petit, cool oasis of flavour for the bustling West End crowd. The food menu is minimalist with a choice of two starters, three mains and a host of nibbles. The wine list is extensive with over 100 bottles leaning towards the French and some [...]

  • Why you should drink Cava for the Jubilee

    May 31, 2022

    Cava did itself a disservice after its popularity boom in the 1950s and 60s, flooding the market with cheaper versions and paying the price by putting off discerning consumers for the last few decades. Now they are taking steps to create and cultivate a premium product through greater care and stricter regulations – and the [...]

  • Getting the party started at Sumosan Twiga, Knightsbridge 

    May 19, 2022

    The crisp white tablecloths, framed black and white photographs and floor length houndstooth curtains may look discreetly chic, but the DJ working the decks on the floor of the restaurant lets you know that this is where the party starts. A place to see and be seen, the flash of selfies pop and sparkle just as [...]

  • A Bed of Rosés: The story of Bon Jovi’s new fine wine

    May 19, 2022

    “Real men drink pink” announces Jon Bon Jovi at the European launch of Hampton Water rosé, going on to explain that he used to refer to the wine as “pink juice” because “I didn’t want my children to know I drank it so much. I love wine and I love rosé”. Hampton Water is an [...]

  • Angelina is an Italo-Japanese delight with some fine wines to die for

    May 4, 2022

    A place this special was worth the cross-London travel. Strikingly stylish in black and white and hung with Japanese paper lanterns, the warmth of the welcome and the buzz of the open kitchen makes Dalston’s Angelina instantly inviting. Seated along the marble topped bar above the main restaurant floor, we got a perfect view of [...]

  • Sink the pink: How to make the most of Great British Rosé Week

    May 4, 2022

    Sunshine and spring blossoms are thankfully becoming a more regular occurrence, heralding that crowd-pleaser, Rosé Season. You could be a fan of the pale pink of Provence or the juicy Garnacha of Spain, but English rosés are increasingly coming to the award-winning fore and right now we are in the middle of Great British Rosé [...]

  • Dubai’s about arts and culture now, don’t you know?

    April 25, 2022

    THE WEEKEND: Dubai’s new 25hours Hotel One Central is a world away from the synthetic image Dubai struggles with – that of vapid shopping malls and manufactured strips of sand. The city is channelling funds into artistic centres, independent cinemas, galleries and museums and this hotel feels like a part of the nation’s drive for [...]

  • Fizz fiend? Try fantastic Franciacorta

    April 20, 2022

    There is something endlessly beguiling about Italy, particularly for anyone who loves food and wine. When it comes to sparkling wine however, people jump straight to Prosecco’s fresh, fruity flavours, overlooking a relative newcomer to the wine scene: Franciacorta. Well, until recently, that is. Wine-waves were made at the Emmy Awards as Franciacorta, the Italian [...]
