As someone who has been a vegetarian for many years (and dabbled with veganism on occasion) I was excited to try mallow, the new venture by the minds behind Mildreds that has recently opened in Borough Market. That’s right, Borough Market has finally got a 100% plant-based restaurant (it only took 1,000 years!) so the pressure is on for mallow to deliver. Thankfully, the experience was worth the wait. Mallow promises to offer “an elevated plant-based food model serving fresh, colourful and internationally inspired food with a strong focus on sustainability, seasonality, and provenance”, and this ethos can be felt throughout their menu and the passionate way the staff talked about the food throughout our visit. The décor is fun and fresh enough to please Borough Market regulars and food enthusiasts, but also elegant and stylish, so will no doubt appeal to nearby London Bridge office workers wanting to impress their clients with their environmental awareness! The upstairs dining area was packed for an early dinner sitting on a Thursday evening, and the fairly close proximity of the tables makes for a buzzy and cosy atmosphere, despite the beautiful high ceilings and large Shard-facing windows. We start off the evening with a simple plate of sourdough to whet our appetite before the small plates arrive. It is however accompanied by salted maple butter which is anything but simple; I could quite happily have been left a bowl of it and a spoon. As a fan of anything sweet and salty, this was a great start! Next, we shared the porcini truffle croquettes with aioli, and the son dumplings with kimchi and gochujang dip. Both were tasty and the ingredients fresh, but it was the dumplings that stole the show for us. Deep fry anything as comforting as porchini mushrooms and slather it in garlic and you’re onto a winner, but the dumplings with the crunchy and tangy kimchi and sticky soy dip were just superb (I could have eaten another half a dozen). For our mains, my partner went with the plum plant-chicken burger, chilli sesame mayo and fries, and I chose the shiitake dashi with udon noodles, mushroom sesame tempeh and daikon. Two very different cuisines and flavours, but with one outcome: satisfaction. My meat-eating partner chowed down his plant burger like it was a steak, devouring the spicy mayo and accompanying daikon so fast I barely had a chance to ask him how it was. My noodles were comforting in their sweet broth, offset by the acidic cabbage beautifully. I honestly can’t remember the last time I ate such a fat juicy shiitake mushroom that contained so much flavour. For dessert, we needed the help of the (already very helpful) waiting staff, as we could not decide which of the tasty sounding offerings to go with. Eventually we settled on the chocolate hazelnut financier with white chocolate mousse, and the carrot cake sticky toffee with cream cheese mousse. Of all the dishes we tried that evening, we both agreed that our desserts were the most exciting in terms of flavours less travelled. My carrot cake/sticky toffee pudding hybrid was just that; a fabulous combo of freshly homemade carrot cake, with an indulgent hyper-sweet toffee sauce, cut through with the tanginess of a cream cheese frosting. Each mouthful both sweet and savoury but uniformly delicious. I wish to end this review, not with a summing up of all you have read before, but by simply stating that I have already booked mallow for the work Christmas lunch. That is how confident I am in its universal crowd-pleasing capacity! Address: 1 Cathedral St, London SE1 9DE Website: https://mallowlondon.com Written by Claire Coveney

Bangkok is a city of contrasts. Golden temples and rooftop bars. Historic neighbourhoods and mega malls. Stilted houses that line the canals and skyscrapers that light up the skyline. It’s loud, bustling, and intense at times - but there’s nowhere quite like it. We’ve spent over three months in the city and have properly got to know it. We’ve eaten our way through the street food stalls, visited the temples, tested out the bars, and tried every kind of transport - from water taxis to the back of motorbikes. This 48-hour guide brings together the best of what we’ve discovered. It’s for first-time visitors who want a mix of local spots and standout experiences. From slow mornings and skyline sunsets to steaming bowls of street food and rooftop cocktails, here’s how to spend two days in Bangkok the right way. Day One: Tuk Tuks, Temples and a very good crab omelette Morning Kick off your time in Bangkok with a tuk tuk tour. It’s a fun and efficient way to get your bearings as you’ll cover a lot more ground than on foot. You’ll whizz past some of the city’s most iconic sights, temples, markets and local neighbourhoods.  Lunch Bangkok is famous for its street food, and for good reason. Every street corner is bursting with flavour. If you’ve got time, head to Jay Fai - one of only two Michelin-starred street food spots in the world. At 81, Jay Fai still cooks every dish herself, often wearing her signature goggles as she works over open flames. Her legendary crab omelette is packed with sweet lump crab meat and wrapped in a golden, crispy crust. It’s rich, indulgent and unlike anything else. The queue can be hours long, but if you’ve got the time, it’s worth the wait, and an honour to be cooked for by her. If you’re short on time, head to Jek Pui in Yaowarat instead. This Chinatown favourite serves big bowls of curry from metal pots on the street. You’ll be sitting on red plastic stools, likely surrounded by locals, but the food really does speak for itself. While you’re there, take a bit of time to wander through Chinatown. It’s loud, colourful and always buzzing. In the evening, the neon signs come on and the food stalls really start to fill up -  but even by day, it’s one of the most vibrant areas in the city. Before you leave, grab mango sticky rice from K. Panich, one of the oldest dessert shops in Bangkok and featured in the Michelin Bib Gourmand guide. Afternoon Spend the afternoon temple hopping. Start at Wat Pho, home to the famous reclining Buddha. Then take the water taxi across the river to Wat Arun. It’s known for its white tiled spires and sweeping views from the top. Dinner We’ve rounded up three great options for dinner, depending on what kind of night you’re after: Apsara Dinner Cruise – set sail along the Chao Phraya River past temples and palaces while dining on a four-course meal with live jazz in the background. It’s a calm, elegant way to see the city from another perspective, away from the bustle of Bangkok’s busy streets. Rongros - a small riverside restaurant with unbeatable views of Wat Arun lit up after dark. It serve Thai classics done extremely well. Vertigo Rooftop Bar - one of our favourite rooftop restaurants in Bangkok. Come just before sunset to catch golden hour views over the cities skyline. The cocktails are great, the food holds its own, and the setting is hard to beat. Day Two: Massages, Mahanakhon and Muay Thai Fights Morning Start slow with a traditional Thai massage. The best one we’ve had is at Harnn Heritage Spa, located inside The Salil Riverside Hotel. The hotel itself is a great place to stay, especially if it’s your first time in Bangkok, as it’s well located so easy to get around from. Late morning Make your way to the Grand Palace, one of Bangkok’s most important cultural sites. The buildings are incredibly detailed and the whole complex is worth taking your time to walk through. Make sure to wear clothes that cover your shoulders and knees  - you won’t be allowed in otherwise. Lunch Book a table at Le Du Kaan, a Michelin-starred restaurant with sweeping views over the city. Their set lunch menu is a great way to experience their fine dining without the usual price tag. It’s a mix of Thai flavours and modern techniques, beautifully done. Afternoon After staring up at the Mahanakhon Sky Tower during lunch, it’s now time to go up. The SkyWalk offers 360-degree views across the city, and the new iTILT experience tilts you 65 degrees over the edge of the building. It’s not for everyone, but if you’re up for it, it’s a serious adrenaline rush. Sunset After all that adrenaline, you’ve definitely earned yourself a drink. Head to Sky Beach - the bar at the top of the Mahanakhon and Bangkok’s highest rooftop bar. Time it for sunset and you’ll catch the city glowing in soft evening light, with sweeping views over the river and a cocktail in hand. Evening For a very different kind of evening, go to Rajadamnern Stadium and watch a live Muay Thai fight. It’s the oldest Muay Thai venue in the world and a great way to see a local sport that’s fast, technical and steeped in tradition. The energy inside is electric, and with the addition of a new 360° immersive dome, it’s now blending heritage with high-tech storytelling in true Bangkok style. Nightcap Finish the day with drinks at one of Bangkok’s many hidden speakeasies. Some of our top picks: Find the Locker Room – enter through a wall of lockers Find the Photobooth – yes, through an actual photo booth You Know Where – intimate, with a menu that includes a cocktail tailored to you based on a dice roll Each bar has its own personality, but all are worth a visit. If you’ve got more time… This is the Bangkok we’ve come to know and love: a little chaotic, full of flavour, but never boring. These 48 hours won’t show you everything, but they’ll give you a proper feel for the place. If you’ve got more time (or extended your stay because you’ve fallen in love), here are a few extra favourites and tips to keep the adventure going. Museums Bangkok National Museum - Thailand’s largest museum, with extensive exhibits on Thai history, art, and culture, offering a deep dive into the nation’s heritage. Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) - a stunning collection of modern Thai art, perfect for those interested in the country’s creative scene. Erawan Museum - known for its giant three-headed elephant sculpture, this museum houses a fascinating collection of antiques and religious artifacts, offering insight into Thai mythology and culture. Parks  Lumpini Park – peaceful in the morning, with a chance to spot giant water monitors near the pond. There are also free pedal boats available to rent. Benjakitti Park – a green oasis in the city with a scenic lake and bike paths, perfect for a relaxed stroll or cycling with views of Bangkok’s skyline. Markets Chatuchak Weekend Market – open Saturdays and Sundays, packed with street food, souvenirs, clothes, and local crafts. Maeklong Railway Market – vintage vibes, great street food, and a lively atmosphere. Floating Markets - a fun and vibrant way to explore Bangkok’s traditional river culture. Food & Drink Fine dining: IGNIV, Kaan, Saffron Contemporary Rooftop Casual eats: Jim Thompson Restaurant (whilst you’re there, visit the museum to learn more about the Thai silk industry), Kinnaree Bars: BKK Social Club (inside the Four Seasons Hotel), Vesper Bar (great martinis), Hex Bar in Chinatown, Tulum Rooftop  Travel Tips If you’re planning to visit a few of Bangkok’s main attractions, the TAGTHAi Pass is worth getting. It covers many experiences mentioned in this guide, including The Grand Palace, Mahanakhon SkyWalk, Rajadamnern Stadium, and several eateries across the city. It’s a handy way to save money and avoid the hassle of booking individual tickets. Book accommodation near an MRT or BTS station. It’s the easiest way to navigate Bangkok and beat the traffic. If you do decide to use taxis, try to avoid rush hour in the evenings when traffic is at its worst (roughly 5 to 7 pm). Dress comfortably but respectfully when visiting temples - shoulders and knees covered are a must. Seasonal advice: The best time to visit Bangkok is during the cooler months from November to February. The weather is more comfortable for exploring and outdoor activities. The hot season (March to May) can be intense, so stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade. The rainy season (June to October) brings sudden showers but also fewer crowds and lush green landscapes.

Tucked away in the heart of Southwark, The Table Café is known for being a firm brunch favourite, offering delicious classics in a relaxed atmosphere. We visited on a Monday lunch time and were lucky enough to have astounding weather, so took a table outside on their beautiful little side terrace. Considering how central it is, it’s very much a calm little oasis even when it’s buzzing on the streets outside. The menu is truly a brunch lover’s dream and I struggled to whittle down the menu. After some debate, I went for The Table Full Veggie; a generous, vibrant plate packed with smashed avocado, homemade baked beans, sweet potato rounds, steamed spinach, sautéed mushrooms and leeks, grilled tomatoes, a herby veggie sausage, and crusty fresh sourdough. Filling and nourishing, the kind of breakfast that leaves you feeling deeply satisfied without feeling a bit gross about the sheer amount of it (the plates are big here). Super fresh ingredients cooked to perfection, special shout out to the baked beans because I usually can’t touch baked beans, but their homemade version is delicious. My guest chose the Brunch Club pancakes, and they were as beautiful as they were indulgent: pillowy soft stacks topped with crispy smoked bacon, Cumberland sausages, free range scrambled eggs, chives, and of course a little pot of maple syrup to finish it off. I do have to admit to a hint of food jealousy because they looked truly epic. Of course, no brunch is complete without a couple of boozy drinks. We had the classic mimosa, and a Picante spicy margarita. Both great options which paired well with the meal. The team at The Table are always super lovely and the venue has a real neighbourhood feel, somewhere you would become a weekend regular if you had access to it. To mark their 20th Birthday they are also offering an extra reason to come down with both the Southwark and Battersea locations serving up a Birthday Brunch menu. Available all day, every day throughout August, guests can enjoy any two brunches for just £20, or opt for a solo dish for £10. The Birthday Brunch Menu includes: The Table Full English Avocado & Feta Toast Very Berry Pancakes or Waffles Brunch Club Pancakes or Waffles Eggs Benedict or Eggs Florentine For more information and to book click here .

We hurried to Battersea Power Station for the second Duck and Rice outpost, which opened just a month ago, joining the Soho restaurant which recently celebrated its ten year anniversary. The spot exuded an incredibly stylish vibe, transporting us instantly into the Duck and Rice world with its elegant furniture and lighting, designed to feel like a twist on an English pub crossed with a Chinese restaurant - a real contrast to the bright lights in the mall outside.  The evening menu is extensive, covering Dim Sum, Small Chow, Noodles and Rice, Snacks, Hero dishes, Vegetables and Wok - we wrestled with how much to order and from which sections. Thankfully, our waiting staff were happy to guide us and recommend dishes. We started with the Dim Sum, which was a real feast for the eyes as well as our mouths. We chose the Venison Puffs, Prawn and Scallop shumai, and Prawn and Chinese chive dumplings all served in traditional steam baskets, each serving two people comfortably with three items of each. Our favourites were definitely the puffs - bitesize delicious light pastry with tasty venison inside. These we paired with prawn crackers that had the perfect crunch, and we couldn’t resist dipping them in the trio of varyingly spicy sauces, including pure chilli sauce! From the extensive drinks menu, we opted for the Lychee Empress which was sharp yet refreshing  and a Lantern, a non-alcoholic mango delight. Both were served in fishbowl glasses and surprisingly lasted way longer than expected. To follow, we dived into the signature Duck and Rice dish as well as Special Rice with Pork and Prawns, Garlic Pak Choi, and a Curry Soft Shell Crab. The Duck and Rice is their house special for a reason - we enjoyed succulent Cantonese roast duck on a bed of jasmine rice and cucumber. With crispy skin and succulent meat this was a real crowd pleaser, yet we did not get to the bottom of the dish - it’s a very generous portion.  The curry crab really did hit the spot - a large crunchy crab covered in a thick, spicy curry sauce - think Chicken Katsu but a crab instead. Absolutely delicious.  Sadly we didn't have enough room for dessert- someone else could have joined us and we still wouldn't have finished everything on the table. Go hungry is our advice, and go before anyone realises it's there!

This week we caught up with Daniel Cray, Co-Founder of Phizz to talk about the inspiration behind the brand, challanges and much more. What inspired you to start Phizz? It started on a flight from Australia to the UK, discovering you can lose up to six litres of water: which is a major contributor of jet lag. At the time, I was working in comms with pro sports teams and noticed they weren’t using sports drinks, but gastro rehydration meds to recover. That sparked a deeper dive into how hydration and electrolytes impact not just muscle performance, but energy, focus, and immune defence - things that were beneficial to everyone, not just athletes. Co-founders and I linked up with a neuroscientist Dr Paul Anastasiades, and that was the beginning of Phizz. Can you take us back to the early days — what were some of the biggest challenges you faced getting Phizz off the ground? We had no black book, no retail experience, and not much capital, just conviction and hustle. We were working from a kitchen table in a west London flatshare, convincing labs to produce for us, emailing airline execs directly, pitching accounts with 3D renders before we had samples. Every early wins were earned by a go big or go home attitude and a lot of resilience. One of the hardest parts? Saying no to distractions. In 2021, we launched a gut health range, but realised it pulled us away from our core mission: hydration. Delisting that product was tough, but one of the best decisions we made. Who is the “Phizz” customer today, and how has that evolved? Our mission is to make electrolyte hydration part of your daily routine, just like coffee or skincare. We’ve often attracted ‘solution seekers’; travellers, athletes, or anyone chasing better performance or recovery. But today, our core customer is someone who’s proactive about their health. They might be a parent, an office worker or someone who justs want to feel sharper each morning. Hydration isn’t just a fix, it’s foundational. As people realise its impact on energy, focus, mood, and immunity, we’re seeing Phizz become a daily habit. If you could achieve one thing with Phizz in the next five years, what would it be? We want to grow the hydration enhancer category into something mainstream: a £150m category in the UK by 2030, where electrolyte hydration is understood and used daily. Phizz has become the UK’s #1 selling electrolyte tablet, and our mission is to lead the shift from reactive hydration to proactive, daily wellness. But we won’t do it alone, growing the category means welcoming more brands, more formats, and more education to help consumers see hydration as foundational to how they feel, think and perform. Success for Phizz is being the brand that helped drive this shift, in the UK and globally, and get more people getting more out of their water, every single day. What’s one piece of advice you wish you’d received when starting your entrepreneurial journey? Build with both colour brains. Red brain is emotion, intuition, passion — it gets you going. Blue brain is calm, rational, structured — it keeps you going. I wish I’d realised sooner that as a leader, you need to operate more often in blue brain than red. Sometimes slowing down to think clearly is the fastest way forward. What would your ideal day in London be like? I wake up to a clear sky — around 7am (I’m not quite in the 5am club when I’m in central London). Kick things off with a Phizz, naturally. Then it’s a gym session with mates, followed by a cycle to Tanner Street in Bermondsey for some tennis. We grab a great coffee nearby, and in the afternoon, someone hosts a BBQ at theirs with good food, good tunes, and a sunset that keeps the day rolling. To find out more about Phizz click here .
