It’s a method to remove unwanted hair in the natural direction of growth by applying a mixture of lemon juice, sugar, and water to the skin and then peeling it off together with the hair.

class="content__text" Not sure where to dine out this weekend? Whatever you're in the mood for, we've got the restaurant for you. ⁠ ⁠ 🍴Barrafina: think Spanish tapas with a flair. Barrafina in Coal Drops Yard is the largest of London’s four Barrafinas – the much-loved mini-chain from the Hart Brothers. We recommend the perfectly cooked tortillas and crispy ham croquettes. ⁠ ⁠ 🍴Vermuteria: A characterful little bar and cafe at the heart of Coal Drops Yard. Vermuteria is inspired by the charming bars and roadside bodegas found along the cycling routes of France, Italy and Spain. It also serves as a homage to Vermouth, with rows of the fortified wine lining the walls. Be sure to order the slow-braised beef and nduja ragu. ⁠ ⁠ 🍴Coal Office: A Middle-Eastern feast for the senses⁠ A meal at Coal Office tends to be a memorable experience, thanks to the two giants at its helm: designer Tom Dixon and famed Israeli restaurateur Assaf Granit. You don't want to miss out on the popular Shikshukit 3.0, beef and lamb served with tahini, chickpeas, aubergine and kurdish dips. Delicious ⁠ ⁠ Looking for more options?
