From Soho's Bar Italia to London's oldest deli dating back to Queen Victoria's reign: How Italy's food and drink culture took hold in the capital - as city faces shortage of Italian waiters due to post-Brexit rules

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 10, 2024
For anyone wanting Italian food in London today, there are hundreds of venues to choose from. From what was Little Italy in Clerkenwell to the hub of Italian venues in Soho, the capital is awash with outlets serving pasta, pizza and other dishes. The history of Italian food and culture in the capital stretches back to the 19th century, when immigrant ice cream sellers (bottom right, an ice cream seller in 1877) flogged their wares on poverty-stricken streets. London's oldest delicatessen, Terroni of Clerkenwell (top right), which opened during the reign of Queen Victoria, is still trading today. As is the iconic Soho establishment Bar Italia (left, and inset recently), which was set up in 1949 to serve good coffee and act as a social hub for the capital's Italian community.

The wine cellar of La Tour d'Argent (top right), the oldest restaurant in Paris, is so popular that only customers who order the most expensive vintages or otherwise 'prove their interest' are allowed a guided tour. Members of the restaurant's fortunate few are then led into the restaurant's bowels by a member of staff wearing white tie and tails who chimes a copper bell to announce the visitor's arrival to the security men who guard its property round the clock. They are met with a warren of 27 rooms containing more than 300,000 bottles worth £21 million per capita. The 25,000 most valuable bottles, which are all priced at £250 to $800, are stored in a separate area on the first floor of the cellar, which has walls reinforced with battleship-grade metal to discourage any thieves tunnelling in, and no one - not even the head sommelier - is allowed inside alone.

All of the Peter Pan Movies, From "Hook" to "Peter Pan & Wendy"

www.popsugar.co.uk, April 12, 2023
"Peter Pan & Wendy," Disney's latest live-action riff on a classic, is a new interpretation of the classic "Peter Pan" tale. In J.M., the first center stage has been seated. Peter Pan's 1904 stage play, as well as the magical land of Neverland, has captured imaginations from around the world. Several films, plays, and books have been inspired by the whimsical tale with a hint of mystery throughout the years, each with a slightly different spin on the Boy Who Never Grew Up. Here's a look at all of the best film adaptations and how they each created the Neverland mythos their own. This silent film adaptation of "Peter Pan" starring Betty Bronson, Ernest Torrence as Captain Hook, Mary Brian as Wendy Darling, and Virginia Brown Faire as Tinker Bell was the first authorized movie adaptation of "Peter Pan." J.M. Barrie worked on a screenplay for this one, but the dialogue on screen came from Barrie's old stage play instead.

It's called The World's Most Popular Arena, but Madison Square Garden has been more renowned than ever in the 21st century, a place where celebrity athletes routinely fail to impress, and teaching careers go to die.
