If you’re going to watch the movie “Maria” - which is kinda brilliantly conceived - and on Maria Callas, ensure you have an opera aficionado to watch with you (as I do). They will explain the soundtrack, opera, aria, and chorus - and what it all means in the movie narrative.

I Love Dishoom - and when I’m back in London, I head there (several locations) for one of my favourite dishes: Chilli Toast. Cocktails and brilliant food - and a fab atmosphere especially the Kensington location.
