High Five
Umami. The fifth taste. That strange, almost ethereal, not quite tangible flavour: savoury, earthy, meaty. We’ve all heard about it (we’ve all wondered if it really exists) but this culinary trend seems to finally be finding its feet.
ONE-HIT WONDERS
It seems the drinks industry is always a step behind gastronomy, where picking one type of food – whether it’s burgers, BBQ or lobster – and doing it well has become du jour. But booze is finally catching up with a boom in single-spirit bars.
Brunch Goes Boom
With Love Brunch, Bacanal, even Bunga Bunga in on the daylit Saturday party, the boozy brunch business is booming
On A Roll
Last year it was the Rock Lobsta pop-up that piqued (or should that be pinched?) our interest with 'one weekend only!' lobster rolls.
Bricks and Mortar
If 2011 was defined by the food truck (for London at least), then 2012 is already setting itself as the year in which wheels grow walls. Pitt Cue, MeatLiquor … even Lucky Chip is getting in on the game.
UJ Restaurant Supplement
We've been seriously inundated with launches lately... so we decided to put together a list of some of the recent West End launches, all in one place (yes, we are missing Mishkin's, but be patient, we'll have something out on it soon!). Happy Dining. xx, Team UJ
