Destinations

MÁLAGA

Settle down for a tasty lunch or dinner

at Restaurante Mesón la Cepa in

Calle Strachan, which has been

feeding hungry diners for 20 years and

has plenty of loyal customers. Run by

legendary restaurateur Antonio Agüera

Miranda, it’s a reference point for Málaga

gastronomy, and a magnet for foodies.

Feast on cod cooked in a variety of ways,

fried squid, Russian salad, Iberian hams

and cheeses, broad beans with ham,

sirloin steak, pork shoulder, or their famous,

tender lamb shoulder – all at a reasonable

price. Tapas is a speciality, if you don’t

fancy a full meal.

LONDON SOUTHEND

Take your pick from one of three bars

at the newly-opened Ravens Bar

& Restaurant (over 21s only), in the

former Ravens department store building.

Tuck into breakfast or lunch in the ground-

floor bar, or brunch, lunch, afternoon tea

or dinner in the first-floor restaurant. The

menu ranges from Eggs Benedict with

a Toasted Muffin, Ham and Hollandaise

Sauce, and Moules Mariniere with French

Fries o the likes of Roast Cod, Pork Belly or

Miso-Glazed Duck.

LUXEMBOURG

If you like a view and have a head

for heights, then don’t miss a trip

on the city’s new architectural

landmark – the award-winning, beautiful,

glass Pfaffenthal lift. It took six years in

the making and is unique, designed

especially for its location. Free to use,

the lift connects the Pescatore park in

the city centre to the Pfaffenthal area at

the bottom of the Alzette valley. Open

to both pedestrians and cyclists, it allows

passengers to enjoy panoramic views

over the picturesque city 71 metres below.

Note, it closes every first Monday of the

month for maintenance, reopening the

following day at 6am.

LYON

See the world on a smaller scale at

Mini World Lyon, France’s largest

miniature park. Covering over 3,000

square metres, it consists of four different

worlds (town, country, mountains and,

new for this year, Mini Lyon) and is full

of amusing details, famous characters

and clever references to cartoons and

movies. In the mountains, for instance,

there’s snow, cable cars, skiers, and

even a Christmas market. Special lighting

recreates different times of the day and

night, and there are plenty of interactive

features, too.

MANCHESTER

One Man Bond: Every Bond Film In 60 Minutes

at the Dancehouse Studios on 24th

November is written by, and stars, Brian Gorman as over 200 characters, including every

James Bond from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, M, Moneypenny, Q, as well as the

infamous villains Dr No, Goldfinger, Blofeld, Mr Big, Scaramanga, Jaws, and Raul Silva. It’s a

whirlwind tour of every cinematic adventure of the world’s favourite secret agent. This unique

production features a single actor, without elaborate props, costumes or special effects, and

takes the audience from the groovy, psychedelic Sixties of the super-smooth Sean Connery,

through to the modern-day bone-crunching and ultra-realistic Daniel Craig. Manchester-

based Brian Gorman is a life-long Bond fan, having read all the Ian Fleming novels as a child

in the 1970s, and seeing every movie dozens of times. He also wrote, and co-produced, the

highly-acclaimed stage play,

New Dawn Fades: A Play About Joy Division & Manchester,

which has toured nationally for five years to standing ovations.
