A stone’s throw from the Trafalgar Theatre, Colonel Saab offers one of London’s most captivating pre-theatre Indian dining experiences – a lush and sensory journey through India’s rich culinary landscape, now cleverly intertwined with a touch of 90s Hollywood whimsy. To mark the arrival of Clueless: The Musical in the West End, Colonel Saab has launched a limited-edition five-course menu (£60 per person), blending bold Indian flavours with playful nods to the cult film. This immersive experience is the result of a creative collaboration between the restaurant and the producers of Clueless, and it’s nothing short of a theatrical performance in its own right – on a plate.

“As if!” – the immortal catchphrase that once dominated teenage vernacular is back, this time reborn on the West End stage. Clueless: The Musical, the bright, breezy adaptation of the 1995 cult classic film starring Alicia Silverstone and a baby-faced Paul Rudd, has landed in London’s Trafalgar Theatre – and it’s serving up a heavy dose of Valley Girl nostalgia with a side of glittery satire. For an easy going night out on my birthday it was fun and light-hearted. Just what I wanted and needed.
Restaurant Review: Banana Tree, O2 Arena

For London families looking to combine an exciting day out with a satisfying, flavour-packed meal, Banana Tree at the O2 Arena offers a compelling culinary stop. Situated next to the entrance of the iconic dome itself, this vibrant eatery delivers Pan-Asian fusion cuisine in an urban-industrial setting that’s both welcoming and full of energy.
This was our second visit to Banana Tree, and once again, it lived up to expectations – if not exceeded them. We just finished climbing the O2, and needed a break from browsing the outlet village, so we stopped here to fuel up and have a long and relaxing chat.
