On a recent night in London, Berkeley Square was buzzing. In one corner, customers for the restaurant Sexy Fish were navigating a gold velvet rope, eager to pay $8 for miso soup and $145 for Wagyu beef.
On the other side of the square, a replica rainforest climbed the Georgian façade of Annabel’s, the nightclub where Prince Andrew once held his stag night. Instead of royalty, a large stuffed parrot was clinging to a 30-foot-high tree, and a leopard peered out through the undergrowth.
