## Celebrate Burns Night 

### The Wolseley 

  

 

Raise a dram to the Scottish bard in style at The Wolseley. For one night only, traditional Scottish fare will be served at the London institution in honour of the famed poet Robert Burns. Guests will start with a warming bowl of cullen skink – a creamy soup made with haddock and potatoes – followed by a plate of haggis, neeps and tatties, finishing up with a sweet cranachan. It wouldn’t be Burns Night without whisky, so there is a special cocktail menu featuring The Singleton 12yr-based tipples. Never a venue to do things by half, The Wolseley has charged the Pipes and Drums of London Scottish Regiment to put on a show, clad in their distinctive Hodden Grey tartan.

*160 Piccadilly, Green Park, W1J 9EB; Saturday 25th January*

## Have A Slow Sunday 

### Oren’s Sunday Lunch 

  

 

Oren, the beloved Dalston spot from chef Oded Oren, launched Slow Sundays this month. The centrepiece is a cosy £32pp sharing menu perfect for Sunday lunch. For the first time, Oren’s grills will take a backseat as the kitchen serves up hearty winter braises, inspired by the stews and bakes of the Middle East, North Africa and the Mediterranean. It kicks off with a mezze spread of the restaurant’s much-loved small plates, all served family-style. Expect creamy Labneh with marinated aubergine, Oren’s signature za’atar flatbread and cured sardines with pink peppercorns. But if you happen to be nursing a hangover, start with Oren’s limited-edition Harissa Bloody Mary – a spicy, hair-of-the-dog classic with a twist.
