FOOD: Meatopia
If you’re looking to sink your teeth into something a bit meatier this weekend then head over to Tobacco Dock for Meatopia’s food festival, where a collection of UK based and international chefs are firing up their coals and serving a selection of meaty treats.
Not for the fainthearted or vegetarian.

PARTY: Prohibition Party
Don your best 20’s attire and head - if you can find it - to The Prohibition Party this Saturday. Held at a secret central London location, the event promises ‘a return to the hedonism of the roaring 20s’.
Think glitzy flapper dresses, elbow length gloves and dapper gentlemen, against a backdrop of live jazz and mouth-watering cocktails.
