Food and wine matching at the Tate

If you want to combine some stimulating food and wine matching with the experience of eating in one of the most beautiful restaurant dining rooms in London, The Rex Whistler Restaurant at the Tate Britain, try out one of their monthly Late at Tate Friday night dinners. The pairings are devised by the Tate's very accomplished young sommelier Hamish Anderson who writes regularly for the Daily Telegraph.
