### MAKE A RESERVATION HERE: Pasta Evangelists At Harrods

Regular SL readers will know how much we love Pasta Evangelists, so we were pretty excited to hear about their first restaurant opening in Harrods. Having opened on Monday, the restaurant features an exclusive menu created by the brand’s head of food, Michele Rodelli. Diners can start their meal with a selection of authentic antipasti – such as charcuterie meats, Grissini breadsticks and focaccia – before moving on to dishes like lasagne cupcake with an asparagus and parmesan velouté, lobster tortelloni, and rigatoni with black truffle. Finish off your meal with a tiramisu or strawberry crumble and pick a drink from the extensive cocktail and wine list.

### START THIS NEW SERIES: The Underground Railroad

  
From Barry Jenkins, the Oscar-winning director of Moonlight, this remarkable new series dropped on Amazon Prime last week.

### READ THIS DEBUT NOVEL: Careless By Kirsty Capes

  
Kirsty Capes’ debut novel came out last week. This coming-of-age story follows the complicated story of teenager Bess. On a hot, sticky day in June, she finds out she's pregnant. But having experienced a troubled upbringing herself, she’s not sure whether she’s equipped to raise her own child. She could tell her social worker Henry, but he's useless. She should tell her foster mother, Lisa, but she won't understand. She really ought to tell ‘Boy’, but she hasn't spoken to him in weeks. Bess knows more than anyone that love doesn't come without conditions. Exploring what it means to be young and neglected in 21st-century Britain, it’s a moving read.
