Nuno Mendes
Food - Viajante Redux Besides serving as executive chef of celebrity it-spot the Chiltern Firehouse, and owner of Spitalfields’ Taberna Do Mercado, Portuguese chef Nuno Mendes has been hard at work masterminding the return of his much-loved former restaurant, Viajante. Previously housed in Bethnal Green’s Town Hall Hotel, the venture won a Michelin star just eight months after opening, and nosed into the world’s top 60 restaurants before its demise in 2014 when Mendes left to open the Chiltern Firehouse. After a failed crowdfunding campaign in early 2016, Mendes stated: “The crowdfunding campaign was an exciting platform to measure peoples’ appetite for Viajante. While we did not reach our ambitious target, it has provided such international awareness for the project that we are now exploring other exciting avenues of investment…” Sign up for news on the website to follow the evolution of the project. www.viajante.co.uk

Fashion Stella McCartney is launching an eponymous, fur- and leather-free menswear line, to be unveiled in London in November alongside her pre-A/W17 women’s collection.
News - Stop Press! The Independent became the first British national newspaper to cease print operations and go digital-only in 2016, in a bold move that may well pave the way for the likes of the Guardian and Financial Times. With digital clearly the future, but print still attracting far more advertising revenue, all the big papers are grappling with how to make the transition. Strikingly modern when it was launched in the 1980s, the Independent – or Indie – has always been a leader, becoming the first quality UK title to switch from broadsheet to compact format,
gogocityguides.com
and the first to launch a cutprice sibling title, the i. At its peak, it sold 428,000 copies a day, but sales had dwindled to 15% of that in recent years. Russian oligarch Alexander Lebedev, who bought the Independent titles in 2010 for a token £1, has enthusiastically embraced new media – transforming the fortunes of the Evening Standard, also owned by his company ESI Media, by making it free, launching London Live TV, and turning www.independent.co.uk into the UK’s fastest-growing quality newspaper site.
This Season in London
Fashion - London Leads Industry Shake-Up Brit label Burberry entered exciting new territory when it announced plans to abandon the traditional catwalk calendar from September 2016 and instead present two annual, seasonless collections combining both men’s and women's wear. The collections will be available for immediate purchase online and in shops. The move comes at a time when the industry seeks to recalibrate the outdated show format, whereby collections are shown four months before shoppers can actually get their hands on them. London’s House of Holland was an early adoptee of the so-called ’see-now-buynow’ trend, and recently used image-recognition app Blippar to enable guests at London Collections: Men to order items from its Spring 2017 collection
directly from the catwalk, while London Fashion Week regular Thomas Tait has spoken of his plans to experiment with the show format by holding one-on-one appointments. Like Burberry, many London brands are plumping for ’co-ed shows’ that combine men’s and women’s collections in the same presentation. At last June’s London Collections: Men, edgy, streetwear-inspired brand Sibling adopted the joint show strategy alongside Bobby Abley, Astrid Andersen and Belstaff – an interesting turn given that, since its founding in 2009, LC:M had helped to ratify the idea of separate men’s presentations. The event itself is also morphing with the times: for the A/W17 shows in January, it’s set to be rebranded as London Fashion Week Men’s.

Hangouts
Ryan Chetiyawardana
At the forefront of innovation within the drinks industry in London, Ryan has been involved in several of the the city’s most critically acclaimed bars for over a decade. In 2013 he launched White Lyan in Hoxton, and its sister venue Dandelyan opened at Mondrian London the following year. White Lyan was the first cocktail bar globally to use no perishables whatsoever, no fruit and even no ice. Ubiquitous bar fruit like lemons, for example, come as house-made distillates. Ryan has been named UK Bartender of the year twice and in 2015 was named ’International Bartender of the Year’ at the highly acclaimed Tales of the Cocktail. www.mrlyan.com
Newington Green Fruit & Veg
Probably my favourite spot in London! They’re always bustling, and super friendly. They have an amazing selection of great fruit and veg, from local and heritage varieties to weird and wonderful exotic fruits that I’ve never come across. I visit every few days when I’m in town to buy fruit for breakfast and mystery items to taste with the team. 109 Newington Green Rd, N1.
Black Axe Mangal
There’s plenty of amazing places to eat in London (try Bao, Oldroyd, The Dairy, Lyle’s, Clove Club, Padella, Marksman...) but I crave eating at BAM. We’ve done the drinks there but that’s not why I recommend it (although hopefully they’re great too!) but because of Lee Tiernan’s incredible cooking (which is why we’ve done the drinks there). Fun, loud and damn tasty. www.blackaxemangal.com
The The Store
I’m a sucker for well-curated modern design, and The The Store has a
brilliantly considered selection of items, ranging from functional to simply beautiful. It’s a great addition to the neighbourhood. www.thethestore.com
that’s held a place in my heart since school art trips, through my days at St Martins and still a favourite pastime. www.tate.org.uk
Embassy East
London Fields
I don’t drink coffee (shame on me), but I drink copious amounts of tea so thankfully I can get a decent brew here. But more importantly they have haggis toasties so I can satisfy my cravings for a taste of the Scottish homeland. embassyeast.co.uk
St John Bread & Wine
Of course stopping in for dinner or lunch is amazing, it remains one of my favourite spots to eat in, but it’s also a little oasis of calm in the midst of Spitalfields. Ideal for a small glass of wine and piece of baked goodness mid afternoon, or for a fortifying breakfast of a proper bacon sandwich or boiled egg with anchovy toast with a cup of Henrietta’s Rare Tea Co tea. www.stjohngroup.uk.com/ spitalfields/
I love East London, and despite the beautiful grandeur of London’s other parks (but don’t get me wrong, visit them, they’re one of the best things about the city), London Fields is very special. In walking distance of some great pubs, and always with the vibrancy of the East End. Plus there’s the lido if the weather gets good enough! London Fields West Side, E8.
Kew Gardens
A world class attraction right in the middle of London! Beautiful, stimulating and a source of constant inspiration for my work. www.kew.org
Tate Modern
A mainstream London attraction, but one that’s gone through a recent extension. It’s also somewhere

Barbican Bloomsbury Carnaby Street Clerkenwell Covent Garden Farringdon Fitzrovia Mayfair Oxford Street Piccadilly Circus Soho Getting around
Shoppers should get out at Bond Street and head to Selfridges before nipping down quaint Marylebone Lane towards the High St for lunch. Loop back down to Oxford Circus for the major chains, then either head south towards Piccadilly via Dover St or take Carnaby Street into the maze of Soho, pausing for coffee at Greek St. Get out at Holborn for museums and sights, where it’s a short stroll past Covent Garden’s Seven Dials on into Trafalgar Square, or north towards the British Museum and idyllic Russell Square.
The Oxford & Regent St area is a shopping nexus, flaunting major flagships including a vast Topshop. Piccadilly’s theatres & classic arcades attract tourists, while the newly buzzing shopping hub of Carnaby St runs parallel into nearby Soho. Famous galleries are to be found around Trafalgar Square, while the delights of theatreland & the tourist-friendly Covent Garden are a short stroll south of Shaftesbury Ave. West of Oxford Circus, monied Bond St & Mayfair host leading UK galleries, luxe department stores like Selfridges & Comme des Garçon’s avant-garde temple Dover Street Market. Respite is to be had north in Marylebone Village, a continental cluster of restaurants & shopping that pivots around the charming High St, or in leafy mecca Bloomsbury, home to the British Museum & literary London. Continue east to the grown-up delights of Clerkenwell, chichi Exmouth Market or the Brutalist arts’ complex, the Barbican Centre.

Insider Guides to Go
Here is the essential edit of the 650+ hottest spots to eat, drink, shop and sleep in London this autumn and winter. Written by Gogo’s London team, the guide focuses on emerging local designers, independent boutiques, small neighbourhood bars, and dynamic new restaurants that no other guide knows about yet. Gogo guides are updated twice a year, and feature a magazine section filling you in on the season’s cultural calendar, plus all the news and gossip everyone is talking about right now. We also invite a few of our remarkable friends to share their favourite places in London, and this new edition features completely revamped maps, with every address now cross-referenced with its own coordinates. Gogo City Guides is a digitally driven company publishing new-generation print and iPhone guides to London and Paris. “Our favourite guide!” Colette, Paris “Arty, quirky and sharp.” Le Monde “An essential travel companion for those who like to stay in the know and off the beaten path.” coolhunting.com
