Where should I head for a truly great whisky? Which cut of meat should I order? And why is red velvet cake like U2?

These, and other questions, answered in our food and drink guide

Dear members — here at The Post, we like journalism. We like investigations (like this one, or the all-consuming project we’ve had in the works since September which should be dropping soon), we like pieces that lift the lid on malpractice from the city’s most prominent institutions and we like exposés that take you behind the curtain to better shine a light on some of the more alarming groups in our region.

As I say, we like all of that. We really do. What we like more, however, is sending ourselves to a restaurant or a whisky bar or a cake shop or (ideally) all of the above; stuffing our faces and writing about that instead. This time David does the honours. 

First though, whet your appetite with some news.
