This is the fucking place. This is it.

OMG IT’S HAPPENING!

On 11 July of 2025, forget it being Blue or Red; Manchester was Oasis.

Dinner at Barão Fladgate | @baraofladgate where some serious € was spent on port.

A wonderful Saturday and Sunday eating and drinking my way through Porto.

When in Porto…

Dinner at ⭐️ Vinha Restaurante | @vinha_restaurante.

A wonderful three days eating and drinking my way through London.

I enjoyed dinner so much at ⭐️ BRAT Restaurant | @bratrestaurant back in February, I came back for more at lunch, this time with reinforcements.

A post-Wimbledon visit to an old fave - BAO | @bao_london in Shoreditch, where we absolutely feasted.

I came. I saw. I Wimbledon(e) it again.

The Upper Class experience on VS138 from JFK to LHR, where maximizing sleep was the goal. But, first, sparkling wine and a mocktail.

Aircraft change moved me onto a flight two hours later than planned but there are worse ways to kill some time than at the D1 Lounge.

A wonderful time eating and drinking my way through NYC between Memorial Day Weekend and Independence Day Weekend.

Wrapped up my time in London with a stop at the relatively new at the time American Express Centurion Lounge at Heathrow, followed by some great planespotting from my window seat on a Delta A330-900neo.

As a Midtown office worker drone, pre-theatre drinks and bites at The Elgin | @elginnyc is a solid option.

Cocktails had over several visits to Attaboy | @attaboy134.
