- Harrods has a new Baccarat Bar that's open until midnight
If you're after a swanky new bar experience then the Baccarat Bar, which has just opened at Harrods, looks to be the place.

Drinks, by award-winning bar manager Cameron Attfield, have been inspired by the colours refracted through the crystal. So you might
... - Gallio pizza brings in Norma's Ben Tish for a mould-breaking delivery menu
A new pizza company about to hit London are claiming that their pizzas are devised specifically to relieve that bloated post-pizza feeling. Gallio are using only ancient grains to make their pizza bases. Apparently those olde grains are high in protein and antioxidants and more easily digestible than newer flours.
Just as interesting as the pizza dough itself is the pizzeria's decision to bring in Norma chef Ben Tish for some of the menu as a

This one's a little different to the rest of their cafes, being the group's first self-serve one. You'll be able to get your pink coffee and slice of pink cake to-go, just before you jump on your train (which is handy, because train food trolleys are not in operation at the
