...The cocktail shakers will be out in force in Bethnal Green tonight with the news that local bar Satan's Whiskers has topped the UK's Top 50 Cocktail Bars list once again. The bar has managed the top spot twice before, and is back again in pole position having edged out last year's winner Scofield's in Manchester.

...Every year, before the main stars are announced, Michelin usually reveals the Bib Gourmands a few days or more in advance. But this year, for some reason that we can't fathom, the guide didn't really announce them at all.
