Restaurant Review – Fenchurch Seafood Bar & Grill

 By Jonathan Hatchman, Food Editor @TLE_food The city of London seems to have been following a real trend for high-altitude dining within the Square Mile, over the past few years. And joining the impressive skyline’s restaurants in postmodern structures such as The Shard (Aqua, Oblix, Hutong), Heron Tower (Duck & Waffle, SUSHISAMBA) and Tower 42 (City Social), is the newly opened Sky Garden that’s located across the top three floors of 20 Fenchurch Street – AKA The Walkie Talkie. With...

PMQs sketch 4th March – “Cause tonight is the night when two become eight”

By Joe Mellor, Deputy Editor PMQs began with both leaders arguing about how many immigrants are entering the UK. The assumption appears to be we that don’t want more people in the country, if that’s the case then both parties have failed; the Conservatives more recently. Luckily both leaders’ were saved by Farage, who had used his flagship speech earlier in the day to scrap his proposed 50,000 quota, and now looks as confused as everyone else, about immigration control....

Live Review – Grant Nicholas

By Esin Huseyin (@Esin_Huseyin) Bush Hall, London, 26/2/15 Grant Nicholas took to the stage last week to showcase his debut solo album Yorktown Heights. This full UK tour follows on from his sold-out shows earlier this year. The venue was beautiful Bush Hall, an intimate and decadent Victorian music hall - perfect for the likes of Grant Nicholas. The crowd slowly shuffled into the room awaiting the support act, only instead of five-piece WINTERHOURS we were greeted by one fifth...

Battle of the fashion weeks – London vs Paris

By Sian O'Flaherty for STYLIGHT With London Fashion Week finished and with Paris Fashion Week opening today STYLIGHT (inspired by Vahram Muratyan) have visually compared and contrasted the differences between the big smoke and the city of love. Paris has espressos whilst London is all about the green juice, the French are trusty to their Louboutins whilst Londoners rock normcore Adidas Stan Smith. Historically French fashion has been more refined, elegant and polished than London style. Paris fashion week has been...

Review: Herman Ze German

By Jack Peat, Editor of The London Economic  Step aside Preston, a new ‘over the counter culture’ has been born in London and this time it’s of a far tastier variety. Herman Ze German is one of several ventures popping up across the capital championing good, regional food served with haste. Akin to US outlets Five Guys and Chipotle Herman is flying the German flag by offering all things schnitzely in a three-step menu system that ensures you’re not far...

Kyloe, Edinburgh – Review

By Simon Bennison, Food Writer Kyloe is an early 19th century term for Highland Cattle, and the title of Edinburgh’s finest gourmet steak joint. It sits to the west end of Princes Street, overlooking Edinburgh Castle. As we arrived up the stairs into the bright sunny room, were seated in a large window facing booth with cowhide covered seats, and introduced to a glass of prosecco and a Lone Star beer. This was going to be a good day. A...

Yurt Lush, Bristol – Review

By Laura Elvin, Food Writer The clue is in the name.  This is Sunday dinner with a difference, and the difference is the fact that you are in a great big Mongolian yurt. Now I can’t really big up the setting because rather unusually the great big tent is sat in the middle of Bristol’s financial district, which on a Sunday is absolutely dead. BUT as soon as you're inside with a blooming lovely log fire in the middle, rustic...

Appropriate Behaviour – Film Review

By Emma Silverthorn @HouseOf_Gazelle I haven’t laughed so much at a movie since Withnail and I. Not that Appropriate Behaviour is exactly of Withnail’s ilk, it is as the elevator pitch goes: a mix between Frances Ha and Annie Hall. Yet the realistic hilarity and absurdity of the characters struggles are that of Withnail’s, (very high), standard. Like contemporaries Lena Dunham and Miranda July, Desiree Akhavan’s art is of the personal-to-the- point-of-over-sharing kind, and Dunham is unsurprisingly already a big...
