... we tagged along to the Gibson Hall launch party of Smirnoff Black Boutique Barbers luxury men's grooming service (no, we’re not kidding). Yep, starting the 6th of November, Hugo Boss shops in London will offer “gentlemen the chance to enjoy a relaxing traditional shave followed by a Smirnoff Black cocktail.” The shave-n-chugs’ll be happening at these Hugo Boss shops on the following November and December dates ...

What’s with fancy schmancy hotels in West London serving tapas? First, we reported on the tapas available at Knightsbridge hotel, The Cadogan. Now, we’re here to tell ya that The Gore Hotel in South Ken (one of our favourite spots to catch burlesque in London) is now offering tapas at their Bar 190. Happily, we can also relate to you that their tapas are a bit of a bargain, especially considering the chic backdrop.

Review: Tipped Chilli Cook-Off

October 28, 2008
Londonist happily attended Tipped’s Chilli Cook-Off at the Mucky Pup on Saturday, where in addition to sampling a range of mostly excellent chillies (there were eight in the competition; Londonist loved all but two of them), we (as in food and drink editor, Chris Osburn) also participated. We didn’t win but felt our chilli held its own against the competition. Of course, with the likes of cook-off winner and food blogger phenomenon, Helen Graves, we were honoured just to have been invited to participate.

We left our recent lunch at Goodge Street Mexican pit stop, Benito’s Hat, with mixed feelings. The burrito we had was certainly better than ones we’ve had at other burrito stands in this town but had a ways to go before nearing the likes of some of our faves.

Word is out. Londonist loves cupcakes. We’re pretty partial to organic food too (as much for the ethical implications as that organic food seems to generally tastes better). Sooo … when the Organic Cupcake Company contacted us with a “Would you like to sample our cupcakes?” email we giddily got back to ‘em with “Yes please!” and, now after sampling a few of their tasty morsel we wouldn’t be against sampling a little more.

Oak wood panelling, leather armchairs, mahogany tables, fireplaces. Sounds like the right setting for, oh let’s see … leg of lamb with rosemary jus, herb and lemon baby chicken with tarragon jus, sirloin with red wine sauce and Yorkshire pudding, pork loin with crackling and Bramley apple sauce or darne of salmon, but only if served and carved from a silver trolley at one’s table.
What Londonist is pontificating about is the Cellars Restaurant & Bar’s newly introduced daily roast menu ...

Qype Halloween Ghost Walk (Qype does London)
Qype does London
October 24th 2008
As an American expat (who’s usually quite content living in London), I kinda feel as though I miss out on Halloween here in the UK. Growing up in the States, Halloween was always the most awesomest time of the year. In fact, Halloween is still right up there with Christmas for me. I love scary movies, fancy dress, ghost stories … the whole Halloween aesthetic. Even though folks here don’t get nearly as into the Halloween spirit as they do in the US, a nocturnal roam through shadowy Southwark is brilliant way to achieve a maximum dose Halloween creep-out! Last night’s ghost walk really set a proper Halloween-y tone. Thanks Qype!
