| | SUSHISAMBA Covent Garden | | Jungle Fever | | It’s getting hot in here | | The weather might be getting colder but in terms of new openings, the humidity is rising. We’ve noticed an abundance of greenery and tropical vibes of late: think ferns and bamboo at Zela, an urban greenhouse at SUSHISAMBA Covent Garden, and live bands, palm trees and exotic cocktails at The Parrot.
