Things to do in London this weekend (April 5 – 7)
The recent bank holiday weekend fired the starting gun on springtime and in that tradition of bounty and abundance, this week's guide is a bumper edition.
Aside from all the other new restaurant openings in April, we’ve got news of a new residency from the team behind London’s most Instagrammable sandwich, there’s a new(ish) bar set in one of London’s ancient markets and a Michelin-starred, fire-focussed restaurant gets an Italian jolt.
There’s also brand-new theatre and the last chance to see an intensely elegant colourists' exhibition, and, just because, stripping. Wine, Filipino food and live music from indie “Madchester” pioneers round off this bumper edition of the weekend guide. Have at it.
The hot table: Tóu
Following in the, which operated a pop-up in the same first-floor space last year, Tóu arrives at the Globe Tavern in Borough Market this weekend. From the team which brought us TÄ TÄ Eatery, expect a small menu centred around the famed Iberico katsu sando, a breadcrumbed hunk of tender pork with brioche, cabbage slaw, raspberry sauce and XO shallot sauce. Get your phones out, this is the sexiest finger sandwich in town.
