Top Table: MATER1A
11th September 2026
In Notting Hill, Victor Garvey’s exciting new restaurant combines exceptional food with culinary theatre, offering an immersive experience that transports diners to another realm. Read our verdict of this unique new arrival on London’s fine dining scene. By Will James.
Top Table: MIKO Mei Fair
28th August 2026
Samyukta Nair’s new Thai dining room takes dishes people already know and love and treats them with the seriousness usually reserved for tasting menus and very expensive French sauces. There is no urge to dismantle, reinterpret or intellectualise them. Instead, Head Chef Soonthorn Apaipat concentrates on the harder stuff: balance, texture, heat, acidity and ingredients good enough to withstand very little interference.
Checking In: Hotel Café Royal
20th August 2026
Laden with branded shopping bags, crowds of people cross paths with one another; even those glued to their phones managing, miraculously, to avoid collision. Behind them, the unmistakable double deckers rumble past, their red occasionally punctuated by an equally iconic black cab. Where else could we be, but London? Where Regent Street meets Air Street, Piccadilly Circus is just a stone’s throw away, while the old-school elegance of Mayfair and the vibrancy of Soho are both within walking distance. It’s hard to conceive of a better location for Hotel Café Royal, a member of The Set, and a hotel with one foot in London’s glamorous history - and another in its contemporary incarnation.

The former owner and head chef at Romy's Kitchen in Thornbury brings regional Indian cooking to the heart of Westminster, with a sophisticated sharing-led menu taking centre stage.

Romantic Wineries in Napa Valley: A Curated Journey...
29th July 2026
The most memorable Napa Valley wine experiences are usually those that take place against carefully curated backdrops. Think candle-lit wine tasting inside ancient caves, a terrace view of rolling vineyards from inside a chateau, and spectacular sunsets across the valley. Many wineries are still family-owned, meaning experiences can often be tailored to couples’ needs without too much fuss. Tucked away in the Western Hills, Castello di Amorosa, Calistoga, feels decidedly medieval thanks to its Tuscan castle-style exteriors. Far Niente Oakville, meanwhile, boasts secluded gardens rarely seen elsewhere in wine country. If you’re in the midst of planning a honeymoon, anniversary trip, or romantic getaway, these wineries in Napa Valley are a great place to start.
