"Chef Ben Tish has brought the Moorish-inspired cuisine of Sicily to Fitzrovia, to great acclamation. The long, narrow interior of Norma has the feeling of an extremely luxurious North African train carriage, with Moroccan tiles on the walls, cosy booths and decidedly flattering lighting. The menu opens with a generous selection of small plates – snacks, antipasti and a raw bar – followed by pasta which can be ordered in small and large sizes, and proper large plates to finish."

"Few cuisines are as passionately delivered as Italian, and Ben Tish’s interpretation of Sicilian cooking has certainly warmed the hearts of many Londoners since it opened last year. Inside the Fitzrovia haven, golden hues radiate from the hanging lamps to the velvet furnishings, with diners able to order aperitivo plates to share between them, plentiful pasta and indulgent dishes of seafood stew and grilled salt marsh lamb. 8 Charlotte Street, W1T 2LS, normalondon.com"

"Norma embodies the celebrated old-school hospitality and grand café culture found in Italy. Head chef Ben Tish (ex Salt Yard), showcases the fresh and vibrant flavours found on the island of Sicily, imbued with Arabic influences and North African spices. For an al fresco lunch date the patio dining provides the perfect place to devour the delectable pasta dishes available, all centred around fresh, seasonal produce."

"Kings College London only recently opened this permanent site for the Science Gallery, a dedicated space for showing contemporary artwork that explores scientific questions. Its inaugural exhibition is all about addiction, called Hooked, and previous shows in its travelling days have investigated blood, food and orifices. Think of it as looking at science through the eyes of an artist."

": Row upon row of glass jars, with everything from tiny organisms, to strange two-headed beasts, to examples of gross diseases, this museum can be very creepy at times, especially when it’s quiet. However, it’s so much more than the freakshow that it is sometimes made out to be, offering a unique insight into the history of surgery and advances in modern medicine. The next few months are your last chance to see the museum before it closes in 2017 for refurbishment, so get going!"
