| | DON'T MISS: | | | UJ x Foley’s: 50% Off Breakfast | |  | | | Just around the corner from UJHQ, Foley’s is one of our go-to dinner spots, and we were seriously excited when we heard they were launching a breakfast menu. Forget your usual avo on toast, Mitz Vora is doing things differently with his rolls and bowls; think paratha with fried eggs and lamb merquez, or poached eggs, foccacia and truffled mushrooms. To celebrate, we’ve teamed up to give you 50% off breakfast and brunch.
| | | | To redeem, book through Foley’s website here and quote ‘UJ Brekkie Offer’. 50% off total bill when ordering from the breakfast menu, Monday-Saturday. Valid throughout June, July and August.

| | Friday | |  |  |  | | | TRY: | | GO: | | Gunpowder’s New Seafood Menu | | V&A Friday Late: Boiler Room | | | It’s no secret that #UJLoves Gunpowder, and we also love the sound of their new seafood menu – available on Friday and Saturday nights throughout July and August. Inspired by the BBQs of Goa and Kerala, dishes include crab cutlet moilèe, pickle spice scallop with wild garlic chutney and lobster balchow. Perfect for summer nights.
| | Marking the opening of the V&A’s REVEAL festival, this month’s V&A Late is hosted by Boiler Room – so expect a night of eclectic, experimental sounds. Find out what happens when the digital and physical meet as the National Ballet dance through empty galleries, you create your own V&A-inspired GIFs, and you track trends on a global meme map.

| | COMING SOON: | | | Rihanna x Manolo Blahnik | |  | | Rihanna’s third and final collaboration with Manolo is almost here! Following up her Denim Desserts and Savage collections, Rihanna’s ‘So Stoned’ range is made of of four, seriously standout, Swarovski-embellished sandals. Take a closer look at them here, and start deciding which ones you want now. As for release date, all we know so far is July, so keep your eyes and ears peeled.

There’s enough going on to suit every taste, but make sure you find time to stop off for lunch; you’ve got Jamavar, Black Roe and Isabel on the doorstep.
| | This Saturday, Dazed and Coach have teamed up with Adwoa Aboah’s Gurls Talk to host a forward-thinking free festival aimed at helping young women find their voices. Join Hari Nef, Karley Sciortino, Hanne Gaby Odiele and Wayne McGregor for a day of Q&As, talks and workshops, but make sure you get down early as this one’s going to be busy.

| | Sunday | |  | |  | | | WATCH: | | EAT: | | Tupac: All Eyez On Me | | CLAW Seafood | | | We loved Notorious, we loved Straight Outta Compton and now we can’t wait to see the Tupac biopic All Eyez On Me, in cinemas this Friday. Get your friends together for a night at the movies and discover the untold story of Tupac Shakur and his activism. Time to discover a new side of the iconic rapper.
| | We’ve been following CLAW around the capital from pop-up to pop-up, but it seems like the elusive seafood connoisseurs have settled down for a while in Finsbury Avenue Square (also home to Wolf, Yolk and Sub-Cult). Form an orderly queue for those crab and lobster rolls (and the maple bacon and scallop muffin).

| | BOOK IN: | | | Foley’s New Menu | | 
Photo: © Gilad Visotsky | | | If you can’t make it in the AM to take advantage of our UJ x Foley’s breakfast offer, then make sure you get down in the evening to try the new dinner menu. Asian fusion at its finest, we’re still reeling from the grilled octopus, Goan crab tacos and spiced sweet potato fritters.
