September 2018 a look back
Purezza
Purezza is the very first vegan pizzeria to open two restaurants within the UK. One in Brighton and one in Camden.
They are plant pioneers, revolutionising Italian food through cruelty free ingredients. Their aim is simple: to make our plant based menu superior to the traditional alternatives.
“With such a vast menu – all pizzas could be made on three different basis and there is non pizza choices too, such as lasagne or a ‘pure bowl’ – we found it hard to pick.”

Question is will you come leaving with a soggy bottom or a date?
“The best way I can describe First Bakes would be a mix between The Great British Bake Off And speed dating. So whatever picture that creates in your mind, go with that.”

Divine Proportions
If you are looking to dine like a goddess or god then Divine Proportions is the supperclub to most certainly go along to.
Guests will get to experience a heavenly immersive 5-course dining experience based on the story of Dionysus, God of Pleasure and Mischief. Expect course after course of heavenly dishes, cocktails of milk and honey, partying with priestesses, singalong with satyrs and an after party in The Underworld.
“The next goddess we were introduced to was the stunning Aphrodite, who introduced herself through a fun little burlesque number that really made the room open up and sing along. All the confetti and glitter and silliness just added to the perfect ambience.”

Komnata Quest
Komnata Quest provides walking promenade tours and has various escape rooms to play.
Their promenade tour The Heart of Covent Garden takes guests on a magical interactive performance tour like no other. Wearing headphones and following the tour guide you will discover exciting things about the city all whilst trying to solve a mysterious crime.
Question is what is the hearts of houses? who lives behind the black window? how can we understand goblins?
Komnata Quest also at present have two escape rooms one called Saint Angelo’s Castle and the other Doctor Frankenstein. All of which are set in the tunnels under Drury Road.
Some of us this time went along to experience Doctor Frankenstein.
Will you be brave enough to bring Frankenstein back? and will you escape?
“Upon jumping through the doors towards his laboratory blackness hit us and time was fleeting and madness taking toll the challenge was on.”

Plus
Plus also a big thank you to
Wild and Game
Wild and Game is a non-profit organisation in Bristol which was set up back in 2017 by Steven Frampton and Michael Cannon.
They bring great taste of game meat through a variety of products from game-based pies, pasties, sausage rolls and sausages all giving that true taste of the countryside. As all their products use only the highest quality ingredients of which contain low-fat, low-cholesterol game meat from game birds such as pheasant, partridge and grouse.
“Grouse, Brandy & Herb Pate – The look of the pate looked amazing, the smell oozed tones of brandy & herbs and the texture of the pâté was very creamy. I loved how the flavours complimented each other and how the herbs did not overpower the poultry. It was a pleasure to eat.”
