Nobu Matsuhisa and executive chef Mark Edwards have created a menu, which includes the Nobu classic dishes, but with many new items, some of which are cooked in a Japanese wood-burning oven. At one side of the restaurant there is a 12 seater sushi bar and on the opposite side is the Hibachi table, available for parties of twelve people.

St James’s Church, Piccadilly

Posted on April 25, 2011 by mayfair-london

St James’s Church is situated on Piccadilly with another entrance on Jermyn Street.

It is a historic building which forms the tope of the cross on the orb and sceptre formed by the layout of local roads.

St James's Church, Jermyn Street, London, SW1

Excerpt from ‘The Illustrated London News’ August 9, 1947…

For nearly seven years St James’s Piccadilly, has stood roofless and ruined, a poignant reminder of the air attacks of the “Big Blitz” winter of 1940-41.

A portion of the south aisle was temporarily repaired so that services could be held; and last year, as the result of a suggestion made by the late Lord Southwood, the churchyard was made into a garden of remembrance to commemorate London’s fortitude during the war.

Repair work will shortly start on the north wall, which has become unsafe. St. James’s Grinling Gibbons carvings include the font at which Lord Chesterfield and Lord Chatham were christened; and among the well-known men buried there are the two Willem Van de Veldes (marine painters), Gillray the caricaturist and “Old Q.,” the fourth Duke of Queensberry”

Regent Street, in Soho or Mayfair?

Posted on April 25, 2011 by mayfair-london

Soho Soho Soho has published a post about Regent Street. As Regent Street is arguably in Mayfair we thought we would post the link for your interest.

One of the most famous shopping streets in London Regent Street is named after the Prince Regent, who later became King George IV, and is a wonderful, wide, sweeping street with outstanding architectural facades reaching from Piccadilly Circus to Wigmore Street. Every building on Regent Street is under Grade 2 protected status to prevent them being torn down for redevelopment.

Whether Regent Street forms part of Soho or Mayfair is open to debate.

The 16 categories at London Club and Bar Awards 2011 will reflect all aspects of the Capital’s social sway from Best Club and Best Bar, new categories such as Best Restaurant Bar & Best Club Promotions, to Best Night and Best DJ, with all the other accolades in between, and of course The Outstanding Achievement gong!

The entries and winners from the categories are based on decision made by club goers and a committee panel involving national newspapers & media partners, and key nightlife connoisseurs.

The Forbidden London Clubs scene have been nominated for two categories this year following their nomination last year for Best Promoters.
