Afternoon : look at London upside down

Dream of doing an awesome tandem activity Experience the adrenalin of free falling at the O2 Arena. The concept : solo or as a tandem, you are attached by your ankles to an elastic bungee rope, then close your eyes, count to three and dive head first into the abyss! In one word : unforgettable !

I liked: Even upside down, seeing the iconic monuments of London is inevitably really spectacular. It’s a truly intense experience to have at least once in a lifetime!

Evening : gastro chic dinner

Opened in September 2013 by Ian Schrager, partner of Marriott, the prestigious hotel,London Edition, has become one of the capital’s glamorous hot-spots.

Elegant and intimate, the place houses 3 bars full of character: the Lobby Bar, with its refined cocktail list; the most intimate is probably the Punch Room (reservation only) whereas the Berners Tavern, will rather act as a restaurant with its revisited english specialities menu.

Here, the clientele comes from fashion and the media. The London Fashion Week has made it its general headquarters. Need I say more ?

I liked: The scallop carpaccio served on a bed of avocado, radish and jalapeño pepper is a real treat. For the main course, grilled quail and Alsace bacon, smoked tomato jam, seasoned with shallots and parsley was a nice surprise.

London Edition Hôtel, 10 Berners Street
Réservation conseillée.
