Welcome to the latest edition of Southampton Magazine - and prepare to be inspired by the sheer scale and number of major developments coming out of the ground.
PwC recently ranked Southampton as the second highest English city for good growth, the most improved of any other city between 2012 and 2013 - and fourth overall out of 39 UK cities.
Our focus in this edition is the demand for more high quality restaurants, cafes and bars to satisfy the appetite of the seven million day-visits a year to Southampton and the growing number of people choosing to live and work in the city.
We've got features on the major developments - Grosvenor's arts complex, Hammerson's Watermark WestQuay, Allied Development's Admirals Quay, Crest Nicholson's Centenary Quay, Lucent and MSIL's Royal Pier Waterfront and Nicolas James Group's Southampton Harbour Hotel, as well as interviews with major names in the hospitality industry such as Robin Hutson and Nicolas Roach.
And there's even a lip-smacking recipe from Southampton-born Michelin star chef Paul Ainsworth.
