From a Connaught Bar martini through Hélène Darroze's tasting room to a Mount Street nightcap, Mayfair's anniversary-grade evening, walked end to end.

 Soho

Soho Pre- and Post-Theatre

An early seating at Quo Vadis or Bocca di Lupo, the curtain at Shaftesbury Avenue, then Barrafina counter snacks and a Swift nightcap, Soho's theatreland rhythm done right.

 Borough Bermondsey

Borough & Bermondsey Saturday Morning

Borough Market at opening, a Padella cacio e pepe queue, lunch under the Maltby Street arches, and José's sherry counter to close, South London's producer row at its proper pace.

 Green Lanes

Green Lanes Ocakbaşı Row

North London's Turkish street, walked the way the Istanbul-born nephews actually walk it, Diyarbakır for kebab, Gökyüzü for the family table, Antepliler for the baklava.
