Vegan Lunch at Dishoom Battersea – Spices, Memories and a Feast to Remember
Whilst Dishroom can be legendary for the queues it attracts, we found the Battersea Branch busy at lunch-time, but no-one had to wait. The service was sweet, and the food as excellent as ever. We tried a variety of the vegan dishes and they all delivered wonderful flavours and textures.

Review: The Frogs at Southwark Playhouse – A Playful Plunge into the Underworld
What happens when Dionisius takes his slave to Hades to bring George Bernard Shaw back to Earth via a word battle with Shakespeare? Will Pluto let them leave. Can Heracles be forgiven for slaying Cerberus? And what happens when Charon is to stoned to row the ferry on the Styx? All of this bonkers storyline unfolds at Southwark Playhouse. Great acting, singing and dancing and wit. No, it's not quite West End - but it a fun-filled night out.
