Article of the week
The immovable object or the unstoppable force? Interesting comment comes from the Financial Times about the ongoing Apple/FBI fight. It isn’t clear who will win at this stage, but the damages are likely to be extensive.
Discovery of the week
Huge tanks of Pilsner await you at the entrance of Duck & Rice. Immediately, you know you're in for a treat. The Chinese pub concept works particularly well on Berwick Street in Soho. And don't be put off by the word 'pub' - the dim sum and small platters are fantastic, and affordable too.
This new-ish pub/bar/restaurant is likely to take London by storm.
Follow of the week
At Sermelo, we never switch off - even during our down time. Luckily for us, the hit US TV show Scandal marries the chaotic world of White House politics and reputation management. Its Instagram provides behind-the-scenes treats of upcoming episodes – even if we wanted to, we’d never switch this off.
Song of the week
