 |  | …as always, we’ve got food on the mind. Tonight is the first night of Isaac Carew’s supper clubs at Radici – he’ll be serving up Italian greats from his debut cookbook The Dirty Dishes alongside Calabrian chef Francesco Mazzei. The next dinner is 6th November – book now! Other than that, we’re trying to get into Coal Office (have you seen that menu?), and can’t wait for the Harts Brothers’ openings (there are four, previews start in two weeks) at Coal Drops Yard. With all the artspiration of last week, we’re already starting to think about Art Basel Miami 2018, as well as other sunny climes (must get to Mexico City!). If you’re a Soho House member (or can go with a friend), Michael Hennegan is in conversation with DJ Fat Tony on Thursday, which should be a good one. Enjoy!

| | | Levan | Photo: Matt Russell | | | At Last | | | The October openings we’ve been waiting for | | | There isn’t an age-old adage about waiting months for one new restaurant when three come along at once, but there ought to be. This month is a big one! The Clove Club’s Two Lights is officially open and taking reservations, and we’ve got our eyes open for news of opening dates for Levan and Gunpowder’s Custard. And don’t forget to add Andrew Wong’s second restaurant to the list – Kym’s opened last week in Bloomberg Arcade.

| | | Photo: John Carey | | | Sponsored Listing | | | Harry’s Bar | | | Harry’s Dolce Vita gets a new sister restaurant | | | Need a respite when you’re out and about in the West End? Then escape to Harry’s Bar in St. Christopher’s Place for a slice of ’50s Venetian opulence (and maybe one of their signature Infinite Negronis, too). Following on from the original Harry’s Dolce Vita in Knightsbridge, Harry’s Bar is headed up by Diego Cardoso (formerly of Murano), so expect good things. It’s an all-day affair from breakfast to dinner; opt for cicchetti in the afternoon or go all out for dinner with Venetian classics like linguine vongole or calamari fritti. And if you’re lucky enough to remember its namesake – the iconic ’70s private members’ club in Mayfair – you’ll know to expect a serious dose of mid-century Italian glam from the interiors.

 |  | | Sandia Chang | | | Roganic, Noma, Per Se – Sandia Chang has got some serious credentials. And as the sommelier at bubbledogs and their now two Michelin-starred Kitchen Table, we’re knew she’d have a few insider tips on what we should be drinking, and where, this autumn.
| | What's your all time favourite restaurant in London?
Andrew Edmunds. It’s so cozy, the food is always super seasonal and humble and the wine list is the best kept secret in London. Plus… I can bring my dog Paxo.
Where's your favourite place for a drink?
Sager + Wilde on Hackney Road, I love it there.
What should we be drinking for autumn?
Wines from the Savoie. They are perfect to go along with those alpine cheeses whilst sitting in front of a fire.

| | | Sponsored Listing | | | At Southbank Centre | | | A uniquely comic production | | | If you’re in the mood for something completely different from your usual theatre-going experience, book in for Golden Globe-nominated actress Isabella Rossellini’s (Green Porno, Blue Velvet, Death Becomes Her) Link Link at Southbank Centre. Based on genuine scientific research, the one-woman (and her dog) show is part theatrical lecture, part comedy. Expect to see Rossellini and her dog, Pan, transform into Aristotle, René Descartes, a medieval theologian, Harvard Professor BF Skinner and Charles Darwin, exploring what differentiates humans from animals along the way.
