When Hazel asked if I wanted to check out a new restaurant for our monthly catch up, I couldn’t say no. Brassiere of Light is located on the 1st Floor within Selfridges, Oxford Street. The decor was elegant with mirrored tables and a massive glittery pegasus leaping from the wall. The restaurant was busy and thereRead More
