Keep eating, keep helping |
|
You know the drill by now, folks. You eat out, you help out. Simple as that. Lucky for you we’ve rounded up some of the best restaurants offering the mouth-watering Eat Out to Help Out discount that are – crucially – still
taking bookings for August. We’re talking Smoking Goat, we’re talking Gymkhana, we’re talking the Dean Street gosh-darned Townhouse. A lot of these places hold tables for walk-ins, so don’t be discouraged if online bookings appear full. And don’t forget lunchtime! Your boss will be fine with you taking a three-hour break so you can drop into the Tandoor Chop House next week. Totally fine. | |

Stuff for you to do this week |
 |
|
Ah, man! ‘Masculinities: Liberation Through Photography’ |
|
This weekend is absolutely your last chance to see the Barbican’s exceptional show that examines ideas of masculinity, men, manliness, maleness, manning up, being a mensch, making like a man, taking it like a man and other Y-chromosome things (not to exclude people who identify as men, obvs). There are cowboy hats, Taliban guyliner and subversion aplenty. |
|
The best of the rest: |
The high laugh Peckham’s Bussey Rooftop Bar is back in business with live comedy. This Sunday it’s ‘Taskmaster’ and ‘Mock the Week’ fave Ed Gamble. Let’s see if he has committed to writing a whole new set of Covid-related material, or if he’s just going to ignore it.
Go micro! Pull up a tiny stool (not really, they’re normal-sized) at the Time Out-endorsed BAPS micropub on Saturday night. It promises ‘beer and phenomenal sandwiches’ – phenomenal, mind you – so you can hardly go wrong. Book a slot and make tracks to N17.
Heady stuff Based on Oscar Wilde’s play, which in turn is based on the, er, Bible, ‘Salomé’ from The Cockpit is a ‘dark story of rejection, religion, lust and death’, so don’t say we didn’t warn you. Performances are streaming from tonight.

Tête-à-tête with the star of ‘Tenet’ |
 |
|
You remember ‘Tenet’? The highly anticipated Christopher Nolan blockbuster that got delayed, and then un-delayed, and then delayed again, and then double-delayed, and then, finally, scheduled for release on August 26? We caught up with its star, John David ‘son of Denzel’ Washington, and discussed Nando’s, cosplaying as his father and whether he actually understands the film he’s starring in. | |
