Pack it in this weekend. There are three options for tonight including (another) high-brow book signing, wine tasting or a Thanksgiving dinner. Then, we've got food, food, food – Gail's go big, MORE chicken and some Filipino – and party, party, party – Kitsuné and The Cuckoo Club x Show Pony on Saturday (can we realistically do both?), and a LA newbie at Deviation on Sunday. Anyone fancy being chauffeur?

Gail's Kitchen will be open breakfast through dinner, its menu made up of sharing plates inspired by the bread oven. While the morning offerings are hearty – French toast with caramelized apples, minute steak with poached egg – it's lunch and dinner that's got us excited: pizza Bianca with burrata, seafood chowder with herb cobbler and slow-roast pork loin on sourdough trivet. The bar will serve fresh fruit and veg smoothies and a short cocktail list. Hyde Park's annual Winter Wonderland is back for the festive period. Housing anything and everything (and more) to do with Christmas, this is the place to be if you're feeling a little bah humbug this year. There's an ice skating rink, funfair, circus, huge ferris wheel and a market with all the usual Xmas trinkets. There's even a Bavarian Village exclusively for bratwurst and mulled wine. And ice sculptures, natch. It's Chriiiiiiiistmaaaas. 7am-11pm Sharing plates from £2.50 11-13 Bayley Street, WC1B 3HD 10am-10pm Free Hyde Park, W2 2UH APP PERONI VIVI IN STILE Sponsored listing Hervia Bazaar, 40 Spring Gardens, Manchester, M2 1EN As a former hangout for local celebs and fashionistas, Hervia Bazaar has graduated to leader of Manchester's haute fashion pack.

There'll also be some pork offerings in the form of Costa Rican chiccarónes (roasted then fried pork belly) and a Blythburgh pork belly bap with BBQ sauce. Look for a full-on roast option on Sundays.

Serving up the usual tea flavours (think mango, lychee, kumquat, honeydew melon) with jellies and boba balls, Lakwatsa – meaning "to chill" in Tagalog – also offers a merienda "light plates" menu. There'll be spring rolls, prawn and pork lumpia, adobo rice balls as well as four-way tofu and chili squid. Dessert is a must: they have Fili classics such as halo-halo (a shaved ice dessert) and leche flan. Another Deviation shakedown, but this time on a Sunday (don't worry, it finishes at midnight) at Dalston fave Birthdays. Alongside resident Benji B and longtime amigo Acyde, Deviation will present INC. for their very first UK show. Expect soulful sounds and R&B beats from the LA-born band (made up of brothers Andrew and Daniel Aged), who cut their teeth touring with industry heavyweights like 50 Cent, Pharrell and Robin Thicke. 11am-11pm Plates from £3 7 Blenheim Crescent, W11 2EE 8pm-12am £10 33-35 Stoke Newington Road, N16 8BJ AFTERNOON TEA MAD HATTER'S AFTERNOON TEA WITH LUNA & CURIOUS Go for a not-so-traditional afternoon tea in Sanderson's Courtyard (it's covered in winter). The new Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea menu, in collaboration with design collective Luna & Curious, features a veritable pick-and-mix of fantastical features: British food (scones, colourful sarnies), glass caddies for tea, bespoke crockery and ceramics, homemade sweeties and a singing ballerina box sugar pot. Oh, and there's a Philippe Starck Victorian jelly trolley. Mad Hatter's Afternoon Tea at the Sanderson, 50 Berners Street, W1T 3NG £35 per person Reserved Bone Daddies – RAMEN GOES ROCK 'N' ROLL 30-31 Peter Street, W1F 0AR | 0207287 8581 | @bonedaddiesRbar Location In the heart of Soho, opposite Supreme. Easy to access at all hours – a good thing since it's open 'til late from Tuesday to Saturday. Vibe Wholeheartedly casual (which is refreshing, as head chef Ross Shonhan is ex-Zuma and Nobu), this feels very much like a neighbourhood hang for those in-the-know. Music and décor is exclusively 50s rockabilly and prices are great. It feels like the kind of place where a Murakami protagonist would hang out, Asahi in hand. Flavours The menu's simplicity is attractive. Order your ramen (which comes with noodles, bamboo, bean sprouts and the imperative "half-hard-boiled" egg) and add extras if you so wish, like corn, bok choi, chili ground pork/chicken and the "fat pipette" for extra flavour (though you don't need it). We had the Tonkotsu – cha shu pork and spring onion in a 20-hour pork bone broth – and the Tantanmen, a sesame, chili, pork mince and bok choy mix in pork broth. Both were heavier than anticipated, which is just what we needed on a cold night, and full of intricate flavourings. The Tantanmen's spiciness was a slow burner and the Tonkotsu's sweet and salty combo was very more-ish. Check out the snack section for a few classic faves: we tried the yellowtail sashimi, which was fresh and cutting, and the soft-shell crab with a spicy lime sauce. We were also tempted by the fried chicken (points for on-trendiness). Stick to the Asahi Super Creamy Head for drinks, or go for something harder like a sake, shochu or cocktail. The Maiken-Me (shochu, ume shu, watermelon and salt) also looked delicious. Décor Relaxed and effortless. People eat around high tables on stools, walls are covered in a Japanese rock 'n' roll collage and shelves display vintage sake bottles and pickles in jars. We especially liked the ramen kits on every table, including extra garlic (and crusher), a sesame seed cruncher and soy. Upshot Late night noodle love with a pinch of rock 'n' roll for the Soho set.
