ArTeSiAN BAr
OLymPiA LONDON
Arguably the most sophisticated bar in London, Artesian serves the capital’s crème de la crème of cocktails in an intimate bar setting. For those feeling experimental, why not explore Artesian’s innovative cocktail menu and try the Snake Charmer (carrot, sesame, elderflower and orange blossom); Dreamquest (cashew, caramel, dulse, verjus and tonka); or Chameleon Crystals (Tanqueray No.ten, pisco, lime, perilla, chilli and soy). Wash it all down with one of the equally experimental bar snacks. Expect hybrid delights such as Japanese Bloody Mary macaroons and kalamansi-mango marshmallows.
The long-awaited equestrian extravaganza returns to London on Tuesday 13 December 2016. This year’s show promises to be as exciting as ever, with world-class dressage and show jumping sessions, the Shetland Pony Grand National and of course the famous Olympia finale. As well as welcoming over 400 horses through its doors throughout the week, The Great Hall will also house an array of boutique stores and exhibitors to keep guests occupied during intervals.
