| | | Covent’s Second Coming | | | Covent Garden has got it all going on | | | Forget your usual pre-theatre fare – dining options in Covent Garden are looking UP. By now you’ve probably heard that a third Temper is taking up residence there, and that the 10 Cases’ latest venture, Parsons, has found a home on Endell Street… but there’s more. Jidori’s yakitori skewers are incoming, By Chloe is bringing the healthy junk, and Soho’s Le Bab gets a sister site in time for spring. Soho’s got competition!
