We do like a theme. And with the news that 42 Holborn, a new restaurant coming to that very address, is also a little bit fond of the number 42 (there are 42 items on the menu) gives us quiet satisfaction.
In a Grade-II-listed building designed by architect Sir Edwin Landseer Lutyens no less, 42 Holborn is bringing a Mediterranean-inspired menu to what will be an all-day dining concept and event space that’s
