Saturday 28 January 2023 - The Monocle Minute (Monocle)

Start your weekend right with our Saturday newsletter featuring New York literary highlights and the concierge's tasty recommendations for Lake Como.

The grand building was purchased in the early 1900s to house the Ottoman empire’s representative in London and it is still proving a good investment. He returns to Ankara in the coming weeks, however, and will be leaving the service, so on Tuesday, in recognition of a very honest and interesting connection, he generously invited a group of Monoclers to his home for a meal prepared by the embassy’s cook. Monocle’s offices in Marylebone are surrounded by various high commissions, consulate outposts and ample ambassadorial digs and we make a point of inviting our diplo neighbours to events at Midori House and also for lunches where Chatham House Rules firmly apply. The whole set-up is owned by the Hauser & Wirth gallery folk and there’s a main restaurant on the first floor, private dining and drinking rooms on the floors above (our dinner was appropriately in the Swiss Room) and, on the ground floor, a proper London pub. Well, that’s in the Games Room, a bar available to hire, which includes a picture by the late photographer Robert Mapplethorpe of said appendage. As the maître’d helped us find our spot, he took time to point out the Picasso, the Freud, a Matisse.

Man of Many's Staff Favourites – 28 January 2023 (Man of Many)

I recently picked up a Jones Adventure Snowboard Bag to carry my new skis from Whistler back home and I gotta say, I'm pretty impressed. This bad boy is a fully ...

Thanks to a compact and easily transportable design, the EcoFlow Delta is both a functional home appliance but also the perfect camping essential. It charges from 0%-80% in just one hour and ultimately delivers up to 1800W of battery-powered backup. Whether I am at the gym, on a long walk or just relaxing on the couch, my Takeya water bottle keeps me feeling refreshed all day long. When I was a wee little grommet, I spent more time in the ocean than a mermaid on her lunch break. It’s the first time I’ve tried a Saison (commonly referred to as farmhouse-ale), and it’s the first time I’ve drunk a beer out of a Champagne flute, so it was an experience from the start. It’s an impressive monitor for gamers and non-gamers alike. If you’re anything like me and usually carry a suitcase full of items in your pocket, this is one level-up accessory you need to look into. Importantly for me, the ultralight cushioning helps absorb impact, keeping my knees happy and meaning I can be out running again sooner. Facing the prospect of losing his love, job and ability to communicate, he joins a rural shelter for Deaf recovering addicts run by a man named Joe, a recovering alcoholic who lost his hearing in the Vietnam War. Stocking a product range that includes skincare, grooming, kitchen storage, gifts and more, Go For Zero is committed to toxin-free products, sustainable packaging, 100% transparency and carbon-neutral delivery. Another week down and we’re nearing the end of January, can you believe it? I’ve been waiting for the right time to put this one on and after two long years, I finally bit the bullet.
