THE EATER EXHIBITIONS AND EVENTS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT

S P IRITLAND

Branching out from its King’s Cross venue, Spiritland can now be found at The Royal Festival Hall. It’s a perfect setting for a Saturday night with its cool aesthetic (the interiors resemble a ’70s recording studio) and DJ. The food is delightful too; try sweet and sour pork belly, with octopus, pomello and coconut followed by coffee delice, prunes and walnut filo. spiritland.com

CANTOR’ S FOOD STORE , MANCHESTER

While away the hours on a Sunday afternoon in the perfect spot for delicious deli food. The cheery ambience is made cosier by butterfly installations and a low-slung ceiling. Our favourite dish? The snowy meringue cake, made by their resident Kurdish pastry chef. cantorsfoodstore.com

TRACEY EMIN

For or an unapologetic take on female suffering, visit A Fortnight Of Tears, Tracey Emin’s exhibit at White Cube in Bermondsey. It features an Insomnia Room (selfies of a sleepless Tracey), bronze sculptures and an exploration of abortion. Until 7 April; whitecube.com

ANGELINA, DALSTON

Championing an unusual fusion of Japanese and Italian food, this new restaurant in downtown Dalston is a total delight. There’s a strict no-phone policy at the tiny bar and a five-plate sharing menu with dishes, including risotto with burnt soy butter and milk chocolate panna cotta to enjoy with friends. Not one to be missed. 56 Dalston Lane, London E8; angelina.london
