BLEU BLANC
For a classy foodie feast, Comme ca Friday brunch at Bleu Blanc ticks all the right boxes. Served a la carte, the food is a mix of celebrity chef David Myers’ signature dishes such as oxtail tartine, polenta croquettes and grilled king prawns. More of an upscale affair, it’s about food, as opposed to a party brunch filled with entertainment. It’s an authentic taste of the South of France.

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
