EXHIBITION: 50 Years, 50 Voices
From this month, a new exhibition tells the stories of the people who lived, worked and played in King’s Cross from the years 1950 to 2000. It showcases photographs, artefacts and memories from those who experienced life in the area fi rst hand. Visitors stepping into the exhibition will be able to discover the tales of the diverse communities that settled here, as well as those who came to the area to enjoy its distinctive, cutting-edge music and club scene. Until 12th July. Free.King’s Cross Visitor Centre, Stable Street N1C
FOOD: Sunday lunch at the Greek Larder
As you might expect, York Way’s Hellenic restaurant and food store is a wise option for the balmy months. The brainchild of experienced chef Theodore Kyriakou, its location is just above the canal and there’s a summer terrace, too. The food focus is both traditional eastern Med and the “street food” of Athens – which should make their newly-launched Sunday lunches refreshingly different from standard gastropub fare. Expect delights like pot roast veal with stifado sauce, poached grilled baby chicken or smoked grilled beef. Arthouse, 1 York Way N1C
ART: A new clock at St Pancras. Or is it?
Don’t miss a quirky new piece by artist Cornelia Parker. Titled One More Time, it’s a working replica of the station’s DENT London clock, reversed out in black with white hands and numerals. It’ll be suspended from the iconic Barlow Shed roof, 16 metres in front of the original, so for those alighting from the trains the latter’s face will gradually appear eclipsed. Wowsers. Official launch is 28th May. Free. St Pancras International Station
