Lydia just loves ... Thirteen shapes form a pattern that Martin Boyce borrowed from French Sculptors Jan and Joel Martel who in the 1920s designed trees made of concrete. In selected spaces between the concrete slabs, Boyce has installed bands made of brass that form letters following the outlines of the slabs. The letters say, “we are still and reflective.”
Lydia is going here for her birthday ... Peru hit the capital in 2012, Lima London pitched itself squarely at the high end earning itself 1 Michelin Star. The modish rear dining room mixes the hum of low-level beats with polite chatter; the occasional Inca-patterned cushion adds colour. LIMA is the creation of world-renowned Peruvian chef, Virgilio Martinez and his partners, the Gonzalez brothers. Robert Ortiz, Virgilio’s longtime friend, runs the kitchen.
Lydia thinks this place is really good for a cocktail ... Berners Tavern at The London EDITION is a new kind of gathering place for all day dining and entertaining, breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea and late supper. Under the direction of London’s own Michelin starred Executive Chef Jason Atherton, this gastronomic gem offers a contemporary British menu that is simple yet elegant and features the very best produce that the British Isles has to offer.
