It’s a new year, but when it comes to world-class food and drink, it’s still the same ol’ London. Meaning there's no Shoreditch—err...shortage of options across this perennially dynamic cityscape. With literally thousands of restaurants and bars worth exploring, there’s obviously no way we can include everything on one measly list. So the task here is to highlight some places that are doing something especially awesome this winter season. Whether you’re in town for a short stay, or a longtime local, check out what’s on below and you’re certain to be satisfied.

Winter means many travelers will be spending time in cold-weather destinations, heading out on ski trips and cozying up by the fire in cabins, but it also can mean dry, irritated skin. It’s no secret that cold temperatures often leave our skin feeling extremely dry—especially after a long-haul flight. While it can be daunting to switch things up if you’re afraid of breaking out or causing further irritation, your current skincare regimen might not be cutting it against harsh cold and dry climates.

With its eclectic choice of museums, churches and coastal parks in a sprawling metropolis famously stitched from 111 wildly diverse “villages,” Provence’s all-consuming capital deserves far more time than a quick weekend.

The holiday season may have come and gone, but «wave season» is officially here.
