"There’s already been plenty of cooing over the striking brutalist building in which Toklas restaurant is housed, but attention is turning towards the expansive pergola-covered, plant-filled terrace which is fast becoming one of the most sought-after al fresco dining spots in the city. Set on a side street near the Strand, behind building site-type doors and up a small flight of concrete stairs, it’s easy to blink and miss it. But the 100-cover sun-facing terrace tells another story, offering cool, casual cooking that feels thrillingly exclusive, with views that invigorate a love for the city’s architecture." - Emma Louise Pudge
