## CELEBRATE ITALIAN STYLE 

### Il Borro Tuscan Bistro London 

  

 

Don’t fancy cooking an Easter roast? Il Borro Tuscan Bistro London in Mayfair has created a new menu for the occasion, with paired wines from its estate in Tuscany. The seasonal offering includes rack of lamb with smoked aubergine cream and spring pepper stew, handmade tagliatelle with hand cut beef, and parmesan and mushroom risotto – followed by a traditional Colomba cake with candied orange, vanilla sponge and almond ice-cream. The restaurant’s Italian sommelier will guide guests through a flight of wines featuring Petruna, Barolo and vin santo. There’s also a special Easter cocktail made with rum, dark chocolate liqueur and egg yolk.

## MEET THE BOYS 

### Punch Room at The London Edition 

  

 

The Punch Room bar within the London Edition hotel has a new ‘Lights’ cocktail menu. Inspired by light and the effect it has on objects and the senses, it’s split into three chapters: ‘Opaque’, ‘Translucent’ and ‘Transparent’. Take a seat in the moody oak-panelled bar to try drinks like ‘Halo of Smoke’ with Los Siete Misterios mezcal, Casamigos Blanco tequila, Italicus liqueur, coriander and jasmine tea, or ‘Afterglow Punch’ with Maker’s Mark bourbon, fino sherry, mushroom and pandan leaf tea.

## NAB A FREE MEAL 

### King’s House 

  

 

King’s House bar is laying on a free hog roast on Thursday 6th April from 8pm. Kick off the bank holiday weekend in the bar’s new garden, tucking into pork that’s been slow cooked for ten hours, bread rolls and apple sauce. If you can’t make it down then, the venue is also hosting an Easter DJ brunch on Sunday 9th April from 11am to 5pm. Start the day right with sweet and savoury pancake stacks and champagne – we like the sound of the American stack with bacon, hash browns, fried eggs and maple syrup.

## GET YOUR CULTURE FIX 

### Ai Weiwei at the Design Museum 

  

 

Ai Weiwei is surely China’s most vocal political commentator, but the artist is also known for his vast sculptures and Monet-inspired paintings. On Friday 7th April, an exhibition opens at the Design Museum, featuring some of his large-scale works in the gallery’s grounds and huge installations across five ‘fields’. Some are made from Weiwei’s personal collection of Lego bricks; others are made from tiny fragments of porcelain sculptures or ancient ceramics. Look out for the ‘ordinary objects’ crafted from precious materials, and the huge ‘Coloured House’ sculpture in the gallery’s garden. Tickets start from £15.

## THE EXHIBITION 

### Aladdin Sane: 50 Years, Southbank Centre 

  

 

The Southbank Centre has a raft of events celebrating the 50th anniversary of David Bowie’s brilliant 1973 album. *Aladdin Sane: 50 Years* will feature a two-month long exhibition (from 6th April) covering the creation of the album’s iconic artwork, including the legendary lightning flash portrait by photographer Brian Duffy, and mapping how Bowie’s continuous reshaping of his image paved the way for audiences to rethink their own identities. Co-curated by Duffy’s son Chris, the exhibition will begin by spotlighting the vibrant music scene of the early 1970s, contextualising the pivotal moment in which Bowie and Duffy met. It will go on to explore the unique relationship between the musician and photographer, and the January 1973 photoshoot from which the iconic *Aladdin Sane* image was born.
