February 3, 2022

A Day in the Life takes you into the everyday of local creatives and business owners as they show you the best of their city.


Alex Milnes lives in Notting Hill, London and works as Creative Producer at Wallpaper* magazine. During the lockdown he started Wine Dine & Line with a few friends; curated evenings of guided line drawing, food, & wine. We caught up with Alex on how we got involved as chef for the intimate supper club and his ideal day in London.

Upcoming menu for Wine Dine & Line

The next menu is inspired by Mexico and the trip Phoebe (co-founder) and I took there a few years ago.
