London Food & Culture

Where to find your May issue of Gasholder

What makes London's best steakhouse tick? Plus all the usual reviews, arts previews and interviews with interesting people

You can bet your last chicken nugget that every single one of the hip streetfood stalls in Kerb’s daily markets, whether here along King’s Boulevard, over in Canary Wharf, or up the canal in Camden, want to emulate the success of one London institution: Hawksmoor.

Why? Because like a handful of other directional eating establishments, they’ve managed to expand while maintaining their quality, without becoming the kind of deathly soulless corporation that can seem inevitable these days.

Inside the new print issue, free as always, we meet the team behind the phenomenon as they open their latest restaurant on the edge of Borough Market, a former hop warehouse in the grounds of the medieval Winchester Palace.

We grill the head chef for tips on how to cook steak correctly, learn how none of it was really planned – and find out why they haven’t opened a branch in King’s Cross. Yet.


LOCAL ADVERTISING

Elsewhere we chat to ethical local kitchen Elysia, who turn discarded food into beautiful tartines; and check out what to order at oh-so-hot Holborn Dining Room right now.

We also take a look at the story of the Metropolitan line, and speak to the founder of the forthcoming Courtyard Festival, five days of booze-and-bands about to hit Granary Square. We even catch the train to Glasgow and check out a budget hotel with a difference.
