7 London steak restaurants have been named in the 101 best in the world for 2025
Well, what do you know, it's that time of year again. No, not get-overly-excited-about-the-promise-of-a- mini-heatwave time, but the time when a shadowy meat body announces the 101 Best Steak Restaurants in the World for 2025. The list of the finest steakhouses known to humanity includes seven joints in London, with the top rated London location named as Ibai in Farringdon. Ibai just missed out on the top 10 (it came 11th), with the ranking praising the restaurant as a 'celebration of exceptional beef, open-fire cooking and bold, rustic elegance'. Of the steak menu, which is centred around Galician blond beef, the ranking said: 'These cuts, including T-bone, sirloin and rib, are known for their deep, mature flavours and are grilled to perfection over a custom-built charcoal grill.' Ibai places third in Time Out's list of the best steak restaurants in London. The other London restaurants to make the cut are Hawskmoor Air Street (at number 23), Brat (24), Lutyens Grill (at 39, a whole 35 places up on its placement last year), Aragawa in Mayfair (at 41, down from 28th in 2024), Soho gastropub The Devonshire (70) and Guinea Grill in Mayfair (89). And what about number one? That would be Parrilla Don Julio in Buenos Aires, which kept its crown from 2024.

GTA V and VTubers top Twitch's list of 2024 streaming trends
Twitch today released information about its viewership and engagement in 2024: What everyone was streaming and watching throughout the year. According to Twitch, Grand Theft Auto V remains the most popular game on the platform, with titles like League of Legends and Valorant also ranking high in numbers. The platform also reported that it holds a 60% share of the global gaming livestream audience, which watched Twitch for over 15.6 billion hours. The platform's content creators streamed Grand Theft Auto V for over 25.8 million hours, while viewers watched over 1.4 billion hours of the game. League was the runner-up with 1.19 billion hours, and was also the most-watched game in Germany and France. Other titles to make it onto the leaderboards include Valorant, Fortnite and Call of Duty. It's probably not a surprise that esports games make up a large part of the list. Twitch also noted that VTubers have surged in popularity in recent years, with a 10% increase in hours watched on their streams year-over-year. British VTubers have seen the biggest surge, with 200% growth in hours watched, though the genre itself is most popular in the U.S. and Japan in addition to the U.K. Other major streamers on the platform have played host to major events in 2024, including Kai Cenat's 30-day Subathon and Ibai's boxing event. The popularity of Grand Theft Auto V likely presages the potential popularity of its successor, Grand Theft Auto VI, which is due to launch sometime later this year. GTA V has long supported creative roleplay both in the main game and via GTA Online, so Grand Theft Auto VI could cater to that massive audience.
