Escaping from prison is hard, sure – but who would have thought it was so hard to get in? The Clink Charity has now opened up HMP Brixton to selected visitors for lunch. Lags are taught catering skills, and real diners (ie you and me) get to try the menu out. The catch is that to gain a booking, you need to email your details (including your profession – we were tempted to put ‘locksmith’) and wait for vetting and approval – then you get the chance of a meal sitting at noon or 1pm, Monday to Friday. But do they do porridge? We’ll need to get in first to find out. The restaurant is now opened.
