And, as you will have kicked off your weekend early with Red Bull, you'll be in the right kind of mood for some more stellar UJ picks; from the cultural with Mesh, a guilty birthday bash, and some smacking good theatre in Hit Me!, we've got you covered.
This weekend's guide is brought to you in association with
Red Bull Cola. A cola from Red Bull? Yes, but with none of
that secret formula nonsense: this one is all natural, just like
the good old days. Should you fancy spicing things up, this refreshing
thirst quencher also makes a fantastic mixer. The citrus notes
are perfect with all rums, especially Morgan's Spiced Rum with
a squeeze of fresh lime, or splurge on Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum
for a signature drink in the making! Mixed or neat, and best served
chilled over ice, Red Bull Cola is the choice for those in the
know.

RED
BULL COLA LIBRE |
|
How
much would you love us if we could get you into
a bar where drinks are on the house, slap in
the middle of Soho, with top mixologists and
cracking music from a rising star in the DJ
world? Can anyone spell mid-week, post-work
party!
Well, tonight the folks at Red Bull are throwing
the Red Bull Cola Libre, to show off their new,
all-natural cola with a totally free knees-up
- expect some of the finest Cuba Libres in town
- and we're looking after the guestlist...
RSVP at rsvp@urbanjunkies.com
with your name and details, and we'll
get back to you to confirm.

EAT & DRINK |

Chapters All Day Dining
Some brasseries and diners can be a bit of a let down. They lure you in with Bentwood chairs, nicely worn wooden floors and squidgy banquettes, only to let you down by serving mediocre food.
Not so at Chapters in Blackheath Village. Once a more formal restaurant called Chapter Two (Chapter One is in Kent), the same team have given the place a makeover and made it a bit more up-to-the-minute with a zinc bar, exposed brickwork, lots of mirrors and those modern dangly-pendulum lights. The effect is American diner meets hip Continental cafe and the all-day menu reflects this: choose from eggs Benedict or a plate of scones or go the whole hog and tuck into slow roast belly of Packington pork with choucroute and spiced lentils.
And the great thing is, everything is cooked beautifully. South African-born Trevor Tobin has worked at other London treasures such as Lola's and Foliage and really knows what he's doing. He is also helped along by the Vosper grill oven that the kitchen boasts, a rarity in London I'm told, that infuses all it cooks with a fragrant charcoal toastiness.
With views over the heath, it's as good a place as any, and better than some, to while away the afternoon.
