Finger Lickin' Good
Next left Meat Market. Harlem takes over West London

If you feel like raging in Harlem, now you can.

Harlem, the New York-style bar/diner, hasn't had the easiest time as far as openings are concerned, but after a chef switcharoo (or two) - and a truckload of TLC - I think they finally have a winner on their hands.

British mega-talent singer & songwriter Thea Gilmore will be performing at Bush Hall. 7:30pm. 310 Uxbridge Road, W12. £12.50. 020 8222 6955 or online.

Take advantage of late night at the National Gallery & see the opening of the UK's first major exhibition of El Greco. 10am-9pm. Trafalgar Sq, WC2. £10. Book online.

The brainchild of Arthur Baker (legendary New York DJ/record producer) and Stuart Hopson Jones (of Smiths of Smithfield acclaim) serves up authentic Stateside treats, like soul fried chicken and NY-style sandwiches, at its Westbourne Grove locale.

Great music is on the menu as well. There's a live blues night, a regular Soul Classic night and a Hip-Hop/R&B night, appropriately called 'Wiggle It.'

But if opening a restaurant wasn't enough, Harlem has now extended their winning formula to others in the 'hood. Every Wednesday, Harlem now hosts a South Bronx-inspired old skool throw down, at Neighbourhood.

Good food, great cocktails and a new club night to boot - ladies and gents, Harlem is Hot.
