Fri 18 Aug 2023

We Speak to the Owners of Happy Sunday Vintage Shop About Their New Venture

Mon 14 Aug 2023

A stunning new glass-fronted beauty has opened its door on Nottingham’s Derby Road. The arrival of the eye-catching vintage emporium Happy Sunday Vintage is another addition to the exciting independents in the area including Little Brickhouse, Little Plant Guys, the Danish Homestore and The Lime Gallery, to name a few. After staying vacant for many years, the iconic building (which many around the city will recognise as the old Ben Bowers restaurant) has been transformed into a technicolour, rummagers’ dream of vintage clothing, rare antique finds, one-of-a-kind mid-century furniture and homeware. Addie Kenogbon caught up with Happy Sunday co-owners, Bryony Selway and Mihnea Georgescu, and their ‘pawsernal’ assistant, Stevie the dog, to find out more about their new venture.

Food Review: Boulangerie de Saigon

Mon 24 Jul 2023

In true Gen-Z style, I have an issue with buying too many coffees. Good day, bad day, boring day: It’s always the perfect time for a coffee. And, while this habit isn’t great for my finances, it is good for my happiness. Which, of course, is why I was so excited to see Boulangerie de Saigon open ten seconds away from the LeftLion office. Plus, why I dragged our Editor along to try it, mere days after the business had opened...
