No.1 Lieutenant suggested we go to Nopi in Warwick St., Soho, a new restaurant from Yotam Ottolenghi and his team. I have always loved their flour-less lemon drizzle cake from the delicatessen in Notting Hill, so I was looking forward to the visit especially as No.1 was eating meat again. I am usually wary of going to…

I have been to The English National Opera many times, each time has been an event and since it was re-furbished it has been very accessible. I have only ever sat in a Stalls Box since being in a wheelchair so I was a little worried when I was told I was going to see…
I had a reunion with some old friends and they rely on me to choose a venue for our once a year get together. I chose Alyn Williams at the Westbury in Bond St. as it was new to me and the son of The Sartorial Lieutenant , is one of their chefs –Ben Allen. So my…
