Kang’s note: I have a superior treat for you today. This is Paula Sindberg’s experience at the latest ’secret’ restaurant to hit London, at The Loft. Paula owns the Ultimate Wine Company. I promise you’ll like this melange of food, music and design. Over to you P.

The Loft Kitchen in Hoxton, Northeast London, is actually the residence and laboratory of Nuno Mendes, an innovative Portuguese chef in London who is using the lower floor of his loft as the experimental kitchen for his new restaurant (opening in the Bethnal Green Town Centre complex early in 2010).

The dynamo behind the mash-up was actually Rachel Khoo.
