ABOUT IMAGES  
LonsdaleFinal proof that London's nightlife is no longer led from the centre of town comes from the location of this extraordinary concept bar just off the Portobello Road. The design, from architects Fusion, is strictly sci-fi, but no movie ever looked as good as this, with great curves of silver sculpture and aged bronze bubbles studding the walls. On other floors, bright furs and rich carpets add to the impression that you've strayed into a set from Flash Gordon. The cocktails are magnificent and the food is also fantastic (though it comes in minute quantities). Service is impressively efficient - apart from a slightly loony layout that sees every item of food carried perilously across the dancefloor. The Lonsdale is also surprisingly laid-back for such a showy venue. There are plenty of beautiful people, there to see and be seen, but the fashions on display are cheerfully eccentric, and the busy seating layout is well designed to push people together and create an air of easy conviviality.
