The latest food mash-up is here as Norigami is launching a pop-up based on sushi and sandwich coming together. Based on the Japanese ‘sandwich’ Onigirazu, Norigami are adding global flavours to create the following:
- The Vegan Curry – Sri Lankan-inspired potato curry, onion and spiced pickled carrots, coriander and parsley

- Wolfgang Puck is bringing a Chinois on Main pop-up to London
Wolfgang Puck does like an exclusive pop-up. Last year he brought celebrity spot Spago's to London, and he's at it again. This time, it's the turn of his Santa Monica restaurant Chinois on Main, which is coming to Cut at 45 Park Lane for a three-day stint.
We're told it's "where Puck pioneered
... - There's a very piggy bar snack menu at Tom Sellers' Robin Hood popup
If you quite fancied the idea of trying Tom Sellers' Merry Men pop-up, but weren't fast enough off the bat to get yourself a table, then here's another approach.
Sellers' three week pop-up in Bermondsey also features the Merry Men bar. It's a walk-in, 'no reservation' spot with room for up to 40.
Crucially they'll be serving a

All the news that was fit to print (but we just didn't get around to covering this week)...
- London in the Sky 2018 trebles with three sky-high tables and three top chefs
London has no shortage of restaurants with decent views but once you've eaten at London in the Sky everything else must pale by comparison. After all, what bricks and mortar restaurant can compare to being winched 100ft up in the air so you can dine suspended over the city?
For the past four years this restaurant has been popping up all over London and for 2018 it's trebling in size and putting on an impressive roster of
... - Kiln, som saa and P Franco are putting on a one night only Larb Bar
Later this month, Soho hotspot Kiln is going to become the centre of London's food universe with a collaboration that's bound to have folk queueing round the block. They're teaming up with Clapton bar P.Franco and Shoreditch's som saa to become a standing-room-only Larb Bar for one night only.
Of course you can't do anything easy like buy tickets for this ahead of time. Nope, they're selling tickets on the door for £45 on the night itself.
And although it

Updated 15/3/18 with new dates and prices
When it first started, Hot Dinners were among the first to enjoy eating in the House of Lords dining room when it opened to the public. And since then, it's become such a success that it's a regular event (and we've been back again ourselves).
For just a few days during the recess, you can enjoy a weekday lunch at the Peers’ Dining Room. Chefs there have put together a seasonal 3-course menu
... - Michelin-starred street food trader Hawker Chan pops up at KERB in King's Cross
Updated 14/3/18 with a first look
So, since writing this story, it seems that the appearance of Hawker Chan at Kerb is going to be... rather busy for the duration. We popped over to KERB in King's Cross to check him out in action and - BLIMEY, the queue is a little on the epic
... - Grill My Cheese are popping up at Selfridges
The next street food folk to pop up at Selfridges Food Hall are Grill My Cheese. The Leather Lane purveyors of toasted cheese sourdough sarnies will be putting on a combo of classic dishes and Selfridges specials during their four week spot on Oxford Street.
From their classics, you'll find G.M.C (farmhouse mature Cheddar, Farmhouse Cow Milk Mozzarella and bechamel sauce) £6 and their Insta-worthy Rainbow Toasties with beetroot, rocket and

If you haven't already heard of it then you can be sure that at some point in 2018 you'll end up eating at Great Guns Social. This new Borough venture was opened in the middle of last year by the film company Great Guns in the space that used to be The Escape (and, before that, the Goldsmiths Arms). They've brought in Maria Elia to curate a really interesting mix of residencies and to date have already had Khalid Dahbi and food author and chef, John Gregory- Smith as well as
... - House of Commons Members' Dining Room pop-up returns
Update 22/10/20 This story is from 2018. But yes, the House of Commons and House of Lords' dining rooms do open to the public on a regular basis during holidays. Sadly, the prices aren't as subsidised for the public, as they are for MPs so no £3 Michelin-level meals here. If today's news has made you mad as hell and you're in a position to be able to help out some of the charities looking out for children - here are some useful fundraising

Taking over the Plumstead Road Covered Market for two year prior to the area's redevelopment, the latest Street Feast market will feature 8 street food traders, five bars and seating for up to 300 - Tom Sellers is doing an immersive Robin Hood pop-up with a meat-heavy menu
Updated 5/3/18 with new address
You’d think if your Michelin-starred restaurant was closed for a renovation, you might be able to afford yourself some time off. Well, not if you’re Tom Sellers, who’s instead decided to make the most of it with a new, three-week Robin Hood-themed ‘immersive’ pop-up.
He’ll be doing a ‘banquet-style’ menu riffing off the Nottingham fairytale - that's

We are VERY big fans of the St John Bakery doughnuts and any extra opportunity to buy them is to be welcomed. So news that the bakery is popping up at Old Street station is very welcome indeed.
The doughnuts will, of course, be on sale, as will all the sourdough, pastries and eccle cakes that St John is best known for. The bakery will be there for just three weeks, so don't miss your chance for doughnuts on the
