Sunday Brunch at The Jones Family Project, Shoreditch
The Jones Family Project is an “ever-evolving restaurant, bar and social space in the heart of Shoreditch.” Keen to keep up with all the Joneses and their foodie doings (there’s actually no one behind this venue named Jones funnily enough), I dropped by this past weekend for a taste of the restaurant’s recently added Sunday roast menu and left satisfied and hoping the Sunday offering is one new evolution that will last.

There are only a few days left to view the installation by ceramicist Paul Cummins of Derbyshire at the Tower.
