The Manorom Thai Restaurant must be one of the tiniest restaurants in London, with only about thirty seats; even from the outside it doesn't exactly stand out, blink once when walking past and you would probably miss it.

However, if you are really looking for a bargain, then their set lunch at £10.95 per head is incredible value, and exceedingly filling: a choice between two starters, four mains accompanied by fried mixed vegetables and rice or noodles, and dessert. In the evening they have a set dinner with an additional course for £16.

This month Singapore Airlines launched a business class flat-bed sleeper seat on its non-stop service between London and Singapore.

The new 'SpaceBed' is a state-of-the-art seat that reclines into what the airline claims is the biggest business class lie-flat bed in the sky. With a length of 78 inches, when fully extended, and width 27 inches, when both armrests are fully deployed downwards, the SpaceBed is eight inches wider than any existing business class seat or bed and offers total comfort for passengers.

The bed is forward-facing and has moveable dividers and a fixed backshell to give added privacy. It has laptop power and Singapore Airlines' new-generation in-flight entertainment system, KrisWorld, offering a choice of 40 movies and short features and 50 games on 10.4-inch (26.5cm) high resolution monitors.

Eight seats have been removed from the original 58-seat configuration in the Raffles Class section of the Boeing 747-400 aircraft to create space for a 50-seat layout.

The first daily flight with the new SpaceBed took off  from Heathrow on June 2. In late August the service will be extended to a second daily flight and by mid-September, all three daily flights between London and Singapore will have the SpaceBed. Thereafter the new bed will be introduced progressively on connecting services from Singapore to Sydney and Melbourne.
