In thing: Harvey Nichols' own brand

Perk up sparse kitchen cupboards with Harvey Nichols' own brand range of food products.

Biscuits, coffee and spices all come in

silver cylinders.

Delicious olive oils and exotic vinegars

think orange, think blackcurrant - come in heavy reuseable glass bottles. Their sea food mayonnaise, strawberry jam and bitter mint chocolates are a true foodies delight. And we haven't even

mentioned the packaging yet. Tres

important. We're talking oh so simple white labels over arty black and white

stills of red cabbage, coffee beans,

puddle pools, deserts, sea shells and

other arty-glutton metaphors.

Mangez-vous.
