It is really strange but I have never seen any celebrity in London… other than at some organised event. I need to practice my lack of observational s...

I have Googled this, but without some sort of recommendation, it’s a bit arduous to try and go to the 20 or so venues in and around London to find the best one: So, I put it to my learned friends: Where is the best café/bar for one to go and see live poetry readings?

Liberty is not only the most drool-inducing department store, but their cafe has simply bucketlo...

Where are the places where I can get a bite in the middle of the night knowing that the place isn’t shut? I can name quite a few, just one rule, don’t mention petrol stations, corner shops and those huge grocery stores. The ones I know or have heard of are as follows: - Brick Lane Bagels - Ba...
