We’ve hosted events for the likes of Cafe Rouge, 155 Clerkenwell Bar, and Kitchen, Yelp! and Pret (a journalism masterclass in Pret’s head office with endless almond croissants, how cool is that?). We love bringing together like-minded foodies to discover great new companies, restaurants and people in London – and we know how to get people talking, and their fingers tweeting.
