The New Lunch: Dinner

The New Lunch: Dinner

By Piers Fawkes on October 30, 2006

There’s something telling about modern life in this email from London events newsletter Urban Junkies. In the email they provide a list of places in London they recommend where you can eat dinner on the early side – the reason being, that the reader may have skipped lunch (again) just to get the day started. They say:

The UJ schedule: Wake up, check Blackberry, make coffee, smoke cigarette, dress, rush to office, read the news, write emails, make calls, write, run to meeting, drink coffee, read emails, consider lunch, panic, write, remember you haven’t eaten all day, Diet Coke, Google, email, call, diary, polish, go…

Let’s face it, who the hell eats before 6pm these days? Here at Urban Junkies we’re increasingly finding that daily sustenance comprises a banana, canned drink, water and coffee, so we’re saluting those restaurants attuned to the new lunch: early dinner, and we’re not talking tacky, shove-it-down stylee pre-theatre excursions.

Check out their recommendations here.
