Fancy the ultimate day out in central London? Regent Street and St James's are offering one lucky reader the chance to win a meal in St James's and a massage voucher for Regent Street institution Masaj. 

Established in 1945, Franco's is widely believed to be one of London's first Italian restaurants. Sitting pretty on Jermyn Street, the elegant restaurant is a favourite with locals and visitors alike, thanks to its menu of classic, perfectly executed dishes. Favourites include the lasagna and the lobster linguine. 

Masaj, meanwhile, was established to help counteract the negative effects of modern city life – that is, bad posture from bending over computers and sore muscles from extended periods of sitting down. The studio in Quadrant Arcade in Regent Street is a haven among the business of the city. 

With lunch and a massage, you'll feely fully pampered in this most iconic corner of London.
