I love The Netherlands and am an unashamed supporter. It’s an oft-disregarded tourist destination even though it’s easy to get to from London. Short breaks are more usually taken in Paris or Berlin. That’s a shame as Dutch cities offer history, architectural charm and delicious food. Yes, dear reader, that statement isn’t an affectation of…

The thought of this sleepy hamlet will make Londoners smile, as Charing Cross is now a vibrant…

It was 1992 when they opened the first Wagamama in London’s Bloomsbury….
