#  What To Do This Weekend 07.05.20  


 A rare Friday bank holiday means you’ve got three days to relax and treat yourself this weekend. From expertly mixed cocktails to a live gig at home, and juicy steaks to yoga sessions, here’s our pick of activities to get stuck into...  
 

 



 

 



 

 

 

 

### ENJOY A BARISTA-LEVEL BREW: THE ROASTING SHED

Missing your usual coffee fix? The Roasting Shed’s home delivery service covers a selection of small-batch coffee pouches plus all the tools you need to prepare top-notch coffee at home. The independent roastery has also launched a Kind Coffee initiative: take out a subscription and you can send a coffee bag to an NHS worker, volunteer or vulnerable person for free.

### GET THE REAL DRINKS IN: NIO COCKTAILS

NIO Cocktails has opened an online bar that lets you build boxes of three, six or nine cocktails (from £19.50 a box). Choose from an array of drinks that spans classic (negroni, old fashioned, cosmopolitan) to contemporary: the Garden of Russia adds an elderflower twist to a vodka sour.

### READ ALL ABOUT IT: DIRT BY BILL BUFORD

Way back in 2006, American journalist Bill Buford begged Italian super-chef Mario Batali to take him on as a kitchen lackey and teach him how to cook. The self-deprecating book that followed, *Heat*, was a bestseller. Buford’s new book, *Dirt*, reveals what happened when he moved his family to France for five years and dived into the terrifying world of French haute cuisine.
