“If you build it, they will come”
“Rockin’ By The River” – Saltash, 16/03/2019
Last year, as part of a Bad Touch tour, a gig was announced in the sleepy riverside Cornish town of Saltash. Gigs usually take place over the bridge in Plymouth, so the choice of venue raised a few eyebrows and prompted a Google search as I had never heard of it before. The results were even more confusing, as “Livewire” appeared to be a youth club! Shortly after, the gig was cancelled as the promoter had an attack of the jitters as tickets weren’t selling well. That should have been the end of it: refunds, a long trip up country for those who really wanted to see the bands (it was a GREAT bill!), and the venue disappearing back into comparative obscurity. This time however, a spark had been struck, and behind the scenes a group of people were encouraging it to burn. The venue, the bands themselves, and a myriad of other supporters put the gig on anyway… and it was a massive success with a packed venue. Aaron Buchanan lauded it as the best gig on the tour, and a legend was created.
Fast forward a few months: the success of the Bad Touch gig encouraged an active Facebook group consisting of fans and band members called the “New Wave of Classic Rock” to promote their own showcase – “Rockin’ By The River”. The evening would be a charity night, with all the bands playing for fuel money alone. The proceeds would go to the venue. You see, Livewire isn’t just a youth club, it is a ground-breaking project that puts music at the centre of the lives of young people, and gives them a creative outlet that both helps them fill their time and offer support for those who may be going through challenging times.
Famous names litter their website (Pete Townsend and Brian Johnson among them), and the support they have received means that behind the bland facade lurks a large stage, superb lighting rig, and professional sound system that would be the envy of any commercial venue (alongside a pool table and somewhere to hang out over a Coke, obviously!). Bands clamoured to support. The idea of an auction of donated merchandise quickly became so successful that it would have taken longer to conduct than the entire mini-festival, and tickets flew out at the insane price of £10 per ticket. (Yep, £10, for five bands, that HAS to be the best value gig ever!).
Battling against a storm that hit during the day, we arrived as doors opened at 6pm, were welcomed in by the promoters themselves (Security? No hi-vis wearing scowlers here, thank you very much!), scouted the merch… then walked straight back out of the door! Livewire is a youth venue and so doesn’t have a licence, so the solution, adding to the overall laid back uniqueness of events here, is to pop next door to the pub for a take-away pint (cash only!). All that is needed is a food stall outside, and it really would be the best little festival in the West rather than a typical gig!
MC for the evening was Pete K Mally who led the auction of more unique donations between sets with humour and skill, as well as introducing the bands and building anticipation between sets. First up were lively trio Circle Of Crows, led by the effervescent Kyle Gormley on guitar and vocals, backed by a strong rhythm section of Josh Smith on bass and Steve Sudlow on drums. For a first band on stage, at an early hour, they really set the standard with a very high energy performance that ensured the already pretty full venue rocked from the opening notes. I have seen far less impressive bands support higher up on bills at much bigger venue. The friends I went with were similarly impressed. “Falling” particularly impressed with an immense bass line, powerful drums, and a killer riff.
‘Home team’ Ethyrfield followed. These guys genuinely scare me with just how much potential they have. It would be easy to review their set by focussing on how young they are, but that would miss the point! Teenagers shouldn’t be playing at Bloodstock, writing their own material, or playing with such natural confidence and ability! The fact that they have been playing together for nearly five years is what raises them far above their physical ages and makes them one of the most exciting metal prospects in a very long time. With Zach Cornish on bass and vocals, Ben Cornish on lead and vocals, and Dan Aston on drums, their set, particularly “Show Me God” and “Bag Of Bones” shows how their stagecraft has improved since I last saw them a few months back. Their skyward trajectory continues.
Continuing the trio theme, but very much a contrast, were (mostly) Welsh rockers Häxan. Full of smiles and fun, Sam Bolderson on guitar and vocals leads the way, paired with Harriet Wadeson on bass. Tonight, they were backed by Flowerpot drummer Jess. With some great vocal harmonies, we were treated to some cracking rock of the more “‘n Roll” variety that gets your head bobbing and your feet tapping. Although battling a few technical problems, they didn’t let them get in the way. As the set went on, I enjoyed them more and more. Imagine Joan Jett singing to Angus Young’s chugging guitar, and you are on your way to their very enjoyable sound.
The ‘special guest’ slot and main support was snatched up by SKAM, travelling all the way from their Leicester base to do their thing. Now, after such a long drive, you would allow a certain tiredness on stage. Maybe give them a couple of songs to get into the groove. Understand if they weren’t quite at their best. Not a chance! I have seen SKAM several times, and tonight they were simply incendiary! You know you will get a good set from these guys: their songs are catchy, the lyrics intelligent, the musicianship top notch, and they are a visual feast. Tonight though, there was something extra. Occasionally, you are privileged to be at a gig where the band bring it. The crowd responds, so the band up their game a notch further. The crowd respond again, and then it all gets a bit organic and something special happens. This was one of those nights.
Matt Gilmore is always a photographer’s dream on stage, but his energy levels tonight were off the scale. Steve Hill ripped riff after riff and solo after solo out of his guitar and brother Neal Hill battered hell out of his kit. To end the set, Steve left the stage and went walkabout before disappearing out of the door, leaving Matt pummelling his bass to invisible guitar before it returned at the back of the stage. I was exhausted just watching. The reaction from the crowd as SKAM took a bow said it all.
Until King Creature took to the stage, we had been enjoying a series of three-piece bands. To varying degrees, three-piece bands are, for me, a skirmish. The guitar lays down a rhythm for most of the song but then, occasionally, strikes forward with a blow, then returns to that defensive rhythm. King Creature, with twin guitars and a crushingly heavy sound, are like watching a full blown battle. It is an assault of both rhythm and lead at the same time. Guitarists Matt K Vincent and Dave Evans swap lead and rhythm duties seamlessly, not to mention the times when they join together to play deliciously harmonic twin guitar lines. Dave Kellaway is a powerful presence between them, bass slung low, growling out the vocals. Jack Sutton-Bassett drives everything forward from the back, ensuring the assault doesn’t let up.
“Wrath” has an immense riff, “Down In Flames” gets down and dirty, “Fortune Teller” puts the lead line front and centre, “Lowlife” is simply crushing, and “Power” is just that. A lovely touch was when the guys interrupted their set to allow the other bands and key organisers to come on stage and take a bow before returning to the assault.
The next “Rockin’ By The River” is already being planned. Do yourself a favour: join the group, watch the announcements, plan a weekend away in Devon, bag some tickets, and come and support a great venture. Just bring cash if you want a beer or two! It’s a long steep hill to the cashpoint if you don’t!

Wade Robson was financially stable when he made the allegations about Michael Jackson. He had just choreographed Happy Feet Two and an MTV special, and also pulled out of Step Up. He was living in a house worth $825,000.
James Safechuck's parents own shares in Sea/Sur Inc., worth $8.5 million, with his mother owning 11.25% of the company. His mother Stephanie also receives approximately $100,000 per year in profits alone and James has a great job as a computer programmer.
So for people saying they made the allegations because they're broke. They aren't.

London’s Best Takeaway & Delivery For A (Quarantine) Date Night (1) added to Google Docs
London’s Best Takeaway & Delivery For A (Quarantine) Date Night (1)
Love is in the air. Or it might just be the smell of banana bread and hand sanitizer. Either way, just because there’s a national lockdown, it doesn’t mean that you can’t still do date night. This guide is full of places that are delivering dishes worthy of a romantic night in, whether you’re living together or whether you’re championing the virtual date and need options that deliver across London. So light a candle, abandon the trackies, locate and use that thing you used to a call a hairbrush, and fuck it, put a little Barry White on. Welcome to your lockdown date night.
the spots  Giulia Verdinelli Top Cuvée £ £ £ £ Modern European ,  Wine Bar  in  Highbury ££££ 177B Blackstock Rd 7.5 /10
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, especially when it comes to restaurant-quality food. And also when it comes to your partner, who’s on the other side of London. But back to the food. Light some candles and fire up Zoom, because Top Cuvée are delivering their ham hock terrine, freshly cut tagliatelle, and more all over the city.
Nonna Tonda ££££ 191 Victoria St
You and your partner / bae / beloved sex friend are isolating separately and you’re about two weeks from writing them a song. Don’t let that happen. Although you can’t see each other you can still eat the same great handmade pasta, thanks to Nonna Tonda, who are delivering fresh pasta kits across London. The best part is, you can sign up for a repeat order so you always have date night covered.
 Karolina Wiercigroch Yard Sale Pizza £ £ £ £ Pizza  in  Clapton ,  Hackney ££££ 105 Lower Clapton Rd 8.0 /10
A global virus may tear you apart, but pizza will not. So if you’re isolating in different houses but want to play pizza date, then order a Yard Sale from one of their five locations across north and east London. Nothing says this love is real like sharing a slice through a shared screen, especially when you order a surprise brownie for your better half too.
Macellaio RC ££££ 124 Northcote Road
Macellaio sounds distinctly like he might be Romeo’s other, sexier cousin, but it’s actually an Italian beef specialist delivering from Clerkenwell, Battersea, and South Kensington. So if you’re based in central and your partner lives in south, you can still eat quality steak at the same time. We like the look of the rump served with rocket and shaved parmigiano reggiano, but there’s fillet, T-bone, and schnitzel too.
Lyon's ££££ 1 Park Road
Did they always sound that way when they laugh? Did they always breathe this loudly? Dear god, did they always pronounce espresso ‘expresso’? You’re learning a lot of, err, great things about your partner right now. Time to remember life pre-lockdown with a delivery from Crouch End seafood spot and wine bar, Lyon’s. Expect dishes like a crispy softshell crab burger and chargrilled plaice with seaweed butter.
The Laughing Heart £ £ £ £ Modern European ,  Wine Bar  in  Hackney ££££ 277 Hackney Road Not
Rated
Yet
Is your heart laughing? Or is it crying? Neither of you know anymore, but you could both do with a night off from Netflix and conversations about who your favourite local fox is. This is where The Laughing Heart comes in. The late-night Hackney wine bar has transformed itself into a collection and delivery service with changing weekly meals. At the moment they’ve got a Korean beef bossam kit or a Greek lamb feast and both are made for sharing.
 Giulia Verdinelli Sake No Hana £ £ £ £ Japanese  in  St. James's ££££ 23 St James's St 7.6 /10
Well, Shakespeare never said anything about romance involving a play-by-play of their farts, but here we are. The good news is that your quarantine date night just got a whole lot upmarket - and ideally, gas anecdote free - thanks to Sake No Hana. This seriously sophisticated Japanese spot is now delivering their maki, sashimi, nigiri, and more around the West End. The Hana Menu For Two is particularly good for date night, and importantly, includes their spicy tuna maki.
 Rob Greig Naughty Piglets £ £ £ £ French  in  Brixton ££££ 28 Brixton Water Lane 8.2 /10
Planning a big date night to say thank you for not making you sleep on the balcony yet? Earn some quarantine couple brownie points by ordering in from excellent Brixton restaurant, Naughty Piglets. Doing collection of their classics like BBQ pork belly with XO rice, confit duck leg, and Devon crab with peanut sauce, you can pick-up natural wine at the same time too. Heads up, you’ll need to book a week in advance, but it’ll be worth it.
BunBunBun Vietnamese Food ££££ 134B Kingsland Rd
To us, there is nothing more romantic than sitting opposite the person you love (or really like, at least) and watching them simultaneously inhale a summer roll whilst also eyeing up where their next piece of salt and chilli squid is going to fit. Do you know what we mean? If so, then ordering a Vietnamese feast from BunBunBun in Dalston is probably your kind of thing.
 Jamie Lau Yashin Sushi £ £ £ £ Japanese ,  Sushi  in  Kensington ££££ 1A Argyll Rd. 8.5 /10
There are many arguments for lighting a few candles, artfully making swans out of kitchen towel, and popping to the shop to get some ingredients for pasta. But, if your other half is in the mood for sushi, then basmati rice and fish fingers just ain’t gonna cut it. Enter, Yashin Sushi. This classy Kensington sushi spot is available to order from, meaning you can triumphantly open a box of tuna rolls and salmon sashimi, and save that kitchen roll origami for another night.
 Giulia Verdinelli Provisions £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Highbury ,  Islington ££££ 167 Holloway Road Not
Rated
Yet
All you need is love. And maybe a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, wine, and infinite patience. Provisions at least has the wine covered. And the 18-month aged comté too. This Holloway wine bar is delivering everything you need for a grown-up home date night including olives, smoked paprika crisps, charcuterie, fancy cheese, and fresh Dusty Knuckle sourdough. There’s a huge selection of wines, with plenty of affordable options too.
Roka £ £ £ £ Japanese ,  Sushi  in  Fitzrovia ££££ 37 Charlotte St Not
Rated
Yet
Roka is a glam restaurant. There’s no two ways around it. It’s shiny, it’s in Fitzrovia, and black cod features on the menu. So if you’ve unexpectedly ended up quarantining with someone who still thinks you wake up smelling of honey and mystery, then you’ll need to order in from their Charlotte Street location to keep this high-class charade going. Because ordering in tuna tataki, black cod marinated in yuzu miso, and something fizzy is definitely a huge (and completely unsustainable) move.
 Rob Greig Taquería ££££ 139-144 Westbourne Grove
Date nights are exponentially improved by margaritas. That’s just science. Have a big night in together with tacos, quesadillas, and tostadas from one of our favourite spots in Notting Hill, Taqueria. You should know that they have great set menu options for two, churros, and several margaritas to choose from as well.
 Karolina Wiercigroch Rubedo £ £ £ £ Modern European  in  Stoke Newington ££££ 35 Stoke Newington Church Street 8.3 /10
Turns out that you didn’t realise how much you loved the education system until now. That, and booze. Let yourselves have a night off by picking up an adult amount of small plates and wine from Rubedo in Stoke Newington. There are things like burrata, salt cod brandade, homemade cavatelli, and a chocolate and almond torte for after you put the kids to bed.
 Karolina Wiercigroch Mr Bao £ £ £ £ Taiwanese  in  Peckham ££££ 293 Rye Ln 8.1 /10
Right, having described a pigeon you saw on the way to the shop in graphic detail, you’ve officially run out of things to say to each other. Rather than taking another four hour bath, order Mr Bao instead. This cool and casual Taiwanese spot in Peckham is delivering their seriously good bao, fried chicken, and dumplings. Trust us, the shiitake mushroom bao and wasabi mayo will give you something to talk about.
 Giulia Verdinelli Quality Wines £ £ £ £ British  in  Clerkenwell ,  Farringdon ££££ 88 - 94 Farringdon Road 8.0 /10
Quality Wines and quality time sounds like a strapline Bill Murray should drawl, eyebrow raised, but it’s the way things are with this Farringdon wine bar. There are few better places to sit in London, share a few small plates and a bottle of natural wine, and look through the candlelight, past your loved ones eyes, to the blackboard and the words ‘lardo crostini’. You can do your best at recreating this though, with the new QW at home menu that’s available for collection or delivery.
 Giulia Verdinelli Gloria £ £ £ £ Italian  in  Shoreditch ££££ 54-56 Great Eastern Street 8.3 /10
Gloria is a loud and proud Shoreditch trattoria that is usually peak go-to date night material. They’re now offering click and collect on many of their signature dishes like their truffle pasta, extra cheesy carbonara, fresh pizzas, and XXL desserts. Hit them up here to place your order, then light a couple of candles. Job done.
Bistrotheque £ £ £ £ French  in�� Bethnal Green ££££ 23-27 Wadeson St 7.8 /10
On a normal weekend you’d be pitching up in Bistrotheque’s all-white room together, with matching hangovers and bloody marys, ready to get very involved in some roast chicken and chips together. Sadly that will have to wait, but in the meantime you can get this classic Hackney bistro delivered to you Friday to Sunday. There’s pinot, there’s pancakes, and all the things you’d usually share before spending a day on the sofa together.
 Darby's £ £ £ £ Seafood ,  British  in  Vauxhall ££££ 3 Viaduct Gardens Road Not
Rated
Yet
Date night doesn’t have to be delicate and dainty. Let’s be honest, you didn’t need quarantine to get to know the ‘eating-a-bit-of-cheddar-at-4pm-in-underwear-whilst-grunting’ side of each other. So you’ll be more than comfortable having some classy comfort food from Darby’s. Think dexter beef and bone marrow pies topped with croissant pastry, or chicken liver mousse with sourdough from their bakery. You’ll need to pick it up via their hatch, but it’s a must if you’re close to Vauxhall.
José £ £ £ £ Spanish  in  Bermondsey ££££ 104 Bermondsey St Not
Rated
Yet
The bad news is that your Spanish getaway is very much cancelled. The good news is that you won’t have to hear the Ryanair jingle, or get into a Wild West standoff in the priority queue. But you will miss the food. That’s where José Pizarro in Bermondsey comes in. The tapas bar is delivering within 5 miles of SE1, or you swing by and collect. There are boquerones, presa iberica, Spanish tortilla, and jamon. Lots of jamon.
Melabes £ £ £ £ Mediterranean  in  Kensington ££££ 221 Kensington High Street Not
Rated
Yet
Aioli and romance: a pretty formidable combination. Cool and casual Kensington spot Melabes are delivering their excellent Mediterranean small plates that, plot twist, are actually pretty large. We’re really into their laffa, lamb chops, and array of sauces, but the hummus is a must-order here. It’s basically a creamy chickpea pond that’s perfect for chatting over.
 Giulia Verdinelli Namaaste Kitchen £ £ £ £ Indian  in  Camden ££££ 64 Parkway 7.8 /10
Namaaste Kitchen is an upmarket Indian in Camden that has a cool 90s feel. And so will your date night if you watch Pulp Fiction and order in their butter chicken and zardaloo kofte. As well as plenty of house specialities, you’ll also find things like their stupidly moreish toki chatat, big biryanis, grilled tandoori dishes, and plenty of dips worth stocking up on.
Diogenes The Dog £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Elephant and Castle ££££ 96 Rodney Road Not
Rated
Yet
It’s a big night for the two of you. For starters, you’re both wearing underwear and something that isn’t made exclusively of fleece. And if you live within six miles of this charming wine bar in Elephant & Castle, you can keep that whole sophisticated feel going by ordering in from Diogenes The Dog. There’s charcuterie, there’s a huge selection of wines, and yes, there’s cannolo too.
Uchi £ £ £ £ Japanese  in  Clapton ,  Hackney ££££ 144 Clarence Rd 7.7 /10
If you’re coupled up around Clapton, then you’re more than likely missing date night at Uchi - where a solid amount of sushi and sake is very standard behaviour. Fear not, because their takeaway menu has everything you need for a romantic night of raw fish, and you can get it delivered too.
Albertine £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Shepherds Bush ££££ 1 Wood Ln Not
Rated
Yet
This whole thing has made lots of people take a minute and reconsider what’s really important, and what’s really necessary to them. You’ve probably done the same if you’re in a relationship. And you’ve probably, and quite quickly, realised that cheese and wine is very, very important. To both of you. It’s important to Albertine too, and the Shepherd’s Bush wine bar has got you covered for comté, gruyére, and lots more. Plus bottles and bottles of wine.
 Giulia Verdinelli Hide £ £ £ £ Modern European  in  Mayfair ££££ 85 Piccadilly 8.7 /10
Repeat after us: Sorry that I accused you of eating the last Jaffa Cake, that I in fact ate last night, here is a cute video of a sloth and I’ve ordered dinner from Hide. Household peace, sorted. For the first time ever, this Mayfair fine dining spot is delivering some of their exceptional menu headliners to your home, including their soft shell crab tempura, 50-day-aged short horn beef rib, and truffled eggs.
Pidgin Experimental  in  Hackney 52 Wilton Way Not
Rated
Yet
The two of you have probably started to refer to every spider that appears as Count Octo and asking if it would like to join your game of Uno. Time for Pidgin - not a formal name for that bird that just flew past your window - but a Hackney fine dining restaurant you can now collect a three-course meal from or arrange a cab to deliver. Expect things like crispy fried pork pavé, burrata with smoked butternut squash, and fermented black bean sticky toffee pudding.

But, if your other half is in the mood for sushi, then basmati rice and fish fingers just ain’t gonna cut it. Enter, Yashin Sushi. This classy Kensington sushi spot is available to order from, meaning you can triumphantly open a box of tuna rolls and salmon sashimi, and save that kitchen roll origami for another night.
 Giulia Verdinelli Provisions £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Highbury ,  Islington ££££ 167 Holloway Road Not
Rated
Yet
All you need is love. And maybe a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, wine, and infinite patience. Provisions at least has the wine covered. And the 18-month aged comté too. This Holloway wine bar is delivering everything you need for a grown-up home date night including olives, smoked paprika crisps, charcuterie, fancy cheese, and fresh Dusty Knuckle sourdough. There’s a huge selection of wines, with plenty of affordable options too.
Roka £ £ £ £ Japanese ,  Sushi  in  Fitzrovia ££££ 37 Charlotte St Not
Rated
Yet
Roka is a glam restaurant. There’s no two ways around it. It’s shiny, it’s in Fitzrovia, and black cod features on the menu. So if you’ve unexpectedly ended up quarantining with someone who still thinks you wake up smelling of honey and mystery, then you’ll need to order in from their Charlotte Street location to keep this high-class charade going. Because ordering in tuna tataki, black cod marinated in yuzu miso, and something fizzy is definitely a huge (and completely unsustainable) move.
 Rob Greig Taquería ££££ 139-144 Westbourne Grove
Date nights are exponentially improved by margaritas. That’s just science. Have a big night in together with tacos, quesadillas, and tostadas from one of our favourite spots in Notting Hill, Taqueria. You should know that they have great set menu options for two, churros, and several margaritas to choose from as well.
 Karolina Wiercigroch Rubedo £ £ £ £ Modern European  in  Stoke Newington ££££ 35 Stoke Newington Church Street 8.3 /10
Turns out that you didn’t realise how much you loved the education system until now. That, and booze. Let yourselves have a night off by picking up an adult amount of small plates and wine from Rubedo in Stoke Newington. There are things like burrata, salt cod brandade, homemade cavatelli, and a chocolate and almond torte for after you put the kids to bed.
 Karolina Wiercigroch Mr Bao £ £ £ £ Taiwanese  in  Peckham ££££ 293 Rye Ln 8.1 /10
Right, having described a pigeon you saw on the way to the shop in graphic detail, you’ve officially run out of things to say to each other. Rather than taking another four hour bath, order Mr Bao instead. This cool and casual Taiwanese spot in Peckham is delivering their seriously good bao, fried chicken, and dumplings. Trust us, the shiitake mushroom bao and wasabi mayo will give you something to talk about.
 Giulia Verdinelli Quality Wines £ £ £ £ British  in  Clerkenwell ,  Farringdon ££££ 88 - 94 Farringdon Road 8.0 /10
Quality Wines and quality time sounds like a strapline Bill Murray should drawl, eyebrow raised, but it’s the way things are with this Farringdon wine bar. There are few better places to sit in London, share a few small plates and a bottle of natural wine, and look through the candlelight, past your loved ones eyes, to the blackboard and the words ‘lardo crostini’. You can do your best at recreating this though, with the new QW at home menu that’s available for collection or delivery.
 Giulia Verdinelli Gloria £ £ £ £ Italian  in  Shoreditch ££££ 54-56 Great Eastern Street 8.3 /10
Gloria is a loud and proud Shoreditch trattoria that is usually peak go-to date night material. They’re now offering click and collect on many of their signature dishes like their truffle pasta, extra cheesy carbonara, fresh pizzas, and XXL desserts. Hit them up here to place your order, then light a couple of candles. Job done.
Bistrotheque £ £ £ £ French  in  Bethnal Green ££££ 23-27 Wadeson St 7.8 /10
On a normal weekend you’d be pitching up in Bistrotheque’s all-white room together, with matching hangovers and bloody marys, ready to get very involved in some roast chicken and chips together. Sadly that will have to wait, but in the meantime you can get this classic Hackney bistro delivered to you Friday to Sunday. There’s pinot, there’s pancakes, and all the things you’d usually share before spending a day on the sofa together.
 Darby's £ £ £ £ Seafood ,  British  in  Vauxhall ££££ 3 Viaduct Gardens Road Not
Rated
Yet
Date night doesn’t have to be delicate and dainty. Let’s be honest, you didn’t need quarantine to get to know the ‘eating-a-bit-of-cheddar-at-4pm-in-underwear-whilst-grunting’ side of each other. So you’ll be more than comfortable having some classy comfort food from Darby’s. Think dexter beef and bone marrow pies topped with croissant pastry, or chicken liver mousse with sourdough from their bakery. You’ll need to pick it up via their hatch, but it’s a must if you’re close to Vauxhall.
José £ £ £ £ Spanish  in  Bermondsey ££££ 104 Bermondsey St Not
Rated
Yet
The bad news is that your Spanish getaway is very much cancelled. The good news is that you won’t have to hear the Ryanair jingle, or get into a Wild West standoff in the priority queue. But you will miss the food. That’s where José Pizarro in Bermondsey comes in. The tapas bar is delivering within 5 miles of SE1, or you swing by and collect. There are boquerones, presa iberica, Spanish tortilla, and jamon. Lots of jamon.
Melabes £ £ £ £ Mediterranean  in  Kensington ££££ 221 Kensington High Street Not
Rated
Yet
Aioli and romance: a pretty formidable combination. Cool and casual Kensington spot Melabes are delivering their excellent Mediterranean small plates that, plot twist, are actually pretty large. We’re really into their laffa, lamb chops, and array of sauces, but the hummus is a must-order here. It’s basically a creamy chickpea pond that’s perfect for chatting over.
 Giulia Verdinelli Namaaste Kitchen £ £ £ £ Indian  in  Camden ££££ 64 Parkway 7.8 /10
Namaaste Kitchen is an upmarket Indian in Camden that has a cool 90s feel. And so will your date night if you watch Pulp Fiction and order in their butter chicken and zardaloo kofte. As well as plenty of house specialities, you’ll also find things like their stupidly moreish toki chatat, big biryanis, grilled tandoori dishes, and plenty of dips worth stocking up on.
Diogenes The Dog £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Elephant and Castle ££££ 96 Rodney Road Not
Rated
Yet
It’s a big night for the two of you. For starters, you’re both wearing underwear and something that isn’t made exclusively of fleece. And if you live within six miles of this charming wine bar in Elephant & Castle, you can keep that whole sophisticated feel going by ordering in from Diogenes The Dog. There’s charcuterie, there’s a huge selection of wines, and yes, there’s cannolo too.
Uchi £ £ £ £ Japanese  in  Clapton ,  Hackney ££££ 144 Clarence Rd 7.7 /10
If you’re coupled up around Clapton, then you’re more than likely missing date night at Uchi - where a solid amount of sushi and sake is very standard behaviour. Fear not, because their takeaway menu has everything you need for a romantic night of raw fish, and you can get it delivered too.
Albertine £ £ £ £ Wine Bar  in  Shepherds Bush ££££ 1 Wood Ln Not
Rated
Yet
This whole thing has made lots of people take a minute and reconsider what’s really important, and what’s really necessary to them. You’ve probably done the same if you’re in a relationship. And you’ve probably, and quite quickly, realised that cheese and wine is very, very important. To both of you. It’s important to Albertine too, and the Shepherd’s Bush wine bar has got you covered for comté, gruyére, and lots more. Plus bottles and bottles of wine.
 Giulia Verdinelli Hide £ £ £ £ Modern European  in  Mayfair ££££ 85 Piccadilly 8.7 /10
Repeat after us: Sorry that I accused you of eating the last Jaffa Cake, that I in fact ate last night, here is a cute video of a sloth and I’ve ordered dinner from Hide. Household peace, sorted. For the first time ever, this Mayfair fine dining spot is delivering some of their exceptional menu headliners to your home, including their soft shell crab tempura, 50-day-aged short horn beef rib, and truffled eggs.
Pidgin Experimental  in  Hackney 52 Wilton Way Not
Rated
Yet
The two of you have probably started to refer to every spider that appears as Count Octo and asking if it would like to join your game of Uno. Time for Pidgin - not a formal name for that bird that just flew past your window - but a Hackney fine dining restaurant you can now collect a three-course meal from or arrange a cab to deliver. Expect things like crispy fried pork pavé, burrata with smoked butternut squash, and fermented black bean sticky toffee pudding.
