Social Wine & Tapas has also created two new cocktails, just for this week. An Old Fashioned with a sherry and coffee twist as well as a Negroni. Lots more restaurants around the country are embracing this, so take a look at Sherry Wine's UK Twitter for more info. sherry.wine

London Restaurant Festival Awards
Tonight is The London Restaurant Festival Awards at Andaz Hotel in Liverpool Street. Our food director Leah is going along, so watch this space for winners!
Food on wheels – aka skateplates
Yes, you heard us right. Skateplates are essentially a plate/deck made of porcelain with wheels attached. They are easily customised and could be a really fun idea for your next party. Hopefully they have brakes so when you're trying to cut that steak it doesn't end up on the lap of the person next to you! For more info, visit creativechef.co
