Issue 03: Summer in the City
We think of summer as holiday season, but let’s face it, few of us are abroad for all three of the months (if you are, for god’s sakes tell us your secrets!) So if you need inspiration on what to the rest of the time then fear not. This issue carries a wide assortment of articles that’ll help.
Grace Pengelly’s ode to the drizzly British coastline is the most unexpected story about sea and sand we could think of. And let me tell you, she presents a pretty passionate discourse on the hidden charm of cornettos and cold legs.
As for cocktails, we asked four brilliant mixologists to each whip us up a recipe. These are easy to follow and can be concocted at home when you need to cool off - you can even watch a video of each bartender making their mouth-watering drink via the QR code on the page!
There’s also the story of Mah-Jongg – a pet lemur who lived in a London palace in the 1920s – contains our subtle inclusion of the deckchair. He had his own custom one, for lounging aboard his owners’ yacht. Fancy.
And if you love music you can explore the history of festivals, hear about Soho’s most popular busker, or read the chat we had with UB40’s saxophonist. What we’re trying to say is, we think SUMMER IN THE CITY can be as good as anywhere tropical and this edition proves it.
