Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

l Anonimato (0171 243 2808, pictured right) in Notting Hill is running a cut-price promotion until the end of February, with a two-course dinner for pounds 15 and three courses for pounds 18, including a glass of wine. Head chef Nilton Campos Aredes combines ingredients from his Brazilian homeland with those from the US and Europe. Crocodile rillette anyone?

l A taste of rustic Italy has come to Chelsea's King's Road in the shape of Cafe Milan (0171 351 0101). In charge of the traditional wood-burning ovens is executive chef Luis Louiza, formerly of the Cantina del Ponte, who's offering such specialities as Piedmontese red wine risotto with veal and fennel sausages, and roasted saddle of rabbit stuffed with ricotta, Parmesan and spinach. For those who don't have time to dine, a shop has opened next door to the restaurant selling panini, patisserie, home-made pizzas and ice-creams.

l True foodies are advised to reserve a table for 1 March at The Berkeley (0171 726 2250/0171 722 1860) now. Nineteen of the country's best chefs, including Albert Roux, Mark Hix (The Ivy), Peter Gordon (The Sugar Club) and Philip Howard (The Square) will each cook four courses for a single table of diners to raise funds for leukaemia charity Leuka 2000. Tickets are pounds 300 each and guests will not know until the evening which chef they have drawn.
