"Toum is a Lebanese restaurant in Mayfair that doubles as the perfect burgundy backdrop when you’ve decided to bless the masses with your first thirst trap after a six-month posting hiatus. Sure, quite a lot of the dishes here lack oomph, but it turns out that their supremely creamy hummus goes great with skinny fries, big hair flicks, and developing a fixation on the mustard colour of the countertop. It’s so buzzy and flirt-ready that any leather-stool-numb-bum consequences are entirely worth it." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, rianne shlebak
