Swap strikes for spritz: what to do this weekend

The hot table: Tendril

Rishim Sachdeva’s celebrated and mostly plant-based cooking, above, is moving to Mayfair, with dishes expected to include crispy leek with smoked potato salad and beetroot ‘nduja parfait with steamed rice cakes. Get in quick. • 5 Princes Street, W1B, tendrilkitchen.co.uk

The drinking den: These Days Aperitivo Bar

Breweries and beards define what is unofficially known as the Bermondsey Beer Mile, so an Italian-inspired aperitivo bar seems a little at odds with its neighbours. These Days matches bites with drinks including a sundown spritz made with organic wine, blood orange and chinotto. A bit of a relief.

The culture fix: Grenfell, in the words of survivors

This play, from Gillian Slovo, uses language sourced from the first-hand testimony of survivors of the horrific fire six years ago and asks the essential question of how such a tragedy could happen. • Until August 26, Dorfman Theatre, SE1, nationaltheatre.org.uk

The festival: The Ealing Blues Festival

A roster of burgeoning and established talent come together for three days of heartbroken guitars and foot-stamping rhythms. The Hornets, Los Pacaminos, and Robert Hokum all feature over the weekend. Who needs Chicago?
