"There are some occasions when you want a date to feel special and you can never go wrong at Claridge's, especially now that Swiss chef Daniel Humm has brought his slick New York service to Davies & Brook, the new flagship restaurant for the hotel. Roni Horn’s photographs line the walls – each features the landscape of Iceland in such a way as to resemble a woman's breast, surely something to add to the romantic atmosphere. The space is as elegant as they come, and the intricate creations appearing from the kitchen are perfect conversation starters."

"We’re sure your partner is the one etc, but the allure of what comes out of the Davies and Brook kitchen might just turn your head. Serious foodies can’t help but fall for Daniel Humm’s critically acclaimed food at his new restaurant inside the ever-atmospheric Claridge’s hotel. In the daytime, the room is light and bright – but by the evening, the lamps dim and the already elegant setting becomes irresistibly intimate."

"Yes, it is a strange old world we live in, but Davies & Brook is delivering from its home inside the Mayfair hotel.

"Since Brat opened in 2018, Tomos Parry’s whole grilled turbot and Basque-inspired dishes (the burnt cheesecake is legendary) have put this Shoreditch restaurant firmly on the foodie map. Meat, fish and game are cooked over fire, and you will find plenty of seaweed, samphire and laverbread, too – a nod to Tomos’s Welsh roots. The first-floor dining room is large and busy, but fortunately you can book ahead."

"Michelin-starredBrat, which lives above Smoking Goat in Shoreditch, is named after the old English colloquialism for turbot. Grilled seafood (including whole turbot) sourced from Cornwall is the focus. Lamb from Wales, beef from the English south west, and mostly grilled seasonal fruit and vegetables from all over is given plenty of attention, too."

"Born from the shared dreams of two like-minded beer lovers, what started out as half batch brewing has grown into a great community business that really does have the community at its core. They’ve created a great following, opened a taproom and run a variety of local events. Passionate and inventive there’s always another beer coming along to be sampled which makes them so exciting."

"Whose face wouldn’t light up at the sight of a Land Rover fitted with a selection of beer taps?!?. It’s this kind of creativity that they pour into every can and bottle. One thing we also love is their inclusive idealism, you don’t need to be a hipster to enjoy their beer, you just need to like beer."
