| Friday | | | | | | EAT: | | DO: | Dinner at Covent Garden Grind | | Hip Hop Karaoke at Pop Brixton | | We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: the Grind is taking over London, and couldn’t be happier. Their Covent Garden spot now does dinner, and with dishes like pork belly and charred onion, salt cod brandade and sprout panzanella on the menu, we won’t be waiting long to try it.
| | If you’ve never been great at belting out the ballads, maybe it’s time to take a different approach to karaoke. Head to Pop Brixton this Friday as Hip Hop Karaoke take over for one night only, with a library of 200 hip hop hits, performed with a live DJ. Now all you need to do now is choose whether you’re doing old school Wu Tang or Nicki Minaj.

WC2E 7LJ

| Saturday | | | | | | TRY: | | SHOP: | Radio Alice’s Pizza Masterclasses | | Crepe City | | Spend your Saturday trying your hand in the kitchen with Radio Alice’s weekly pizza masterclasses. Learn how to make the perfect sourdough base from head chef and founder Matteo Aloe before turning your hands to the dough (and don’t forget some of their famously fresh toppings), and then reward yourself with a pizza and wine feast. Email hoxton@radioalicepizzeria.co.uk to book.
| | If you’re into anything trainer-related, it’s pretty much imperative that you get down to Crepe City on Saturday. Celebrating footwear, fashion and streetwear, it’s the best to go to find those rare and coveted pairs. Hosted at the Old Truman Brewery, it’s the place where all sneakerheads unite.
