"A thick, brownie-like cookie with sweet-and-sticky dulce de leche, toasted hazelnuts and cranberries, it’s luxurious – full of Valhrona chocolate – and super indulgent. 54 Greek St, London W1D 3DS or 49-50 Camden Lock Pl, London NW1 8AF. Open for take-away in the weekends."

"Restaurants Bakeries Belgravia. Looking pretty in pink, this cute candy-floss emporium from patisserie queen and cake designer extraordinaire Peggy Porschen is an absolute wow – whether you’re purchasing some of her outrageously elaborate confections from the posh boutique or sitting down for cake and a cuppa in her self-styled parlour. There aren’t many tables, so be prepared to wait for your chosen treat – perhaps ‘glorious Victoria’ sponge, dark chocolate truffle cake or something seasonal such as the Easter-themed ‘speckled nest vanilla cloud’ topped with mini chocolate eggs."

"Few places in London are as pink, as frilly or as social media friendly as the Peggy Porschen cake shop in London’s Belgravia. Everything tastes just as good as everything looks with the occasion cakes winning on the style and yumminess factor. They also serve a fabulous afternoon tea."

"Can there be anything lovelier, on a sunny summer's day, than sitting at a pavement table outside Peggy Porschen's pretty pink and white parlour on Ebury Street, with a classic red-velvet cupcake in one hand and a glass of chilled champagne in the other?"

"German-born baker Gerhard Jenne has baked for the likes of Tina Turner and the Rolling Stones. At his London bakery Konditor & Cook, you can get stuck into his superb Mittel-European influenced creations. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, you can now find six dotted across the capital, serving up a range of treats from deliciously indulgent brownies to a jaw-dropping, best-selling Curly Whirly cake, which features a Belgian chocolate centre, lavishly coated in cream cheese and vanilla bean frosting."

"Gerhard Jenne developed a taste for the sweet stuff growing up in Freiburg, Germany, inspired by his mother’s baking. He trained as a pastry chef – or konditor – in Munich, before heading to London, where he made a name for himself creating cakes for the rich and famous – Tina Turner and the Rolling Stones were among his clientele. In 1993, Jenne set up his own bakery in Waterloo: Konditor & Cook, which went on to become one of London’s best cake makers."

"Established in Waterloo in 1993, Konditor & Cook now have a legendary status in London as the makers of delicious, beautiful cakes using only the finest natural ingredients.

You can also request tours or a free ticket from your MP but these are very limited."

"‘Interactive oriental fusion’ is the deal at this futuristic, neon-lit restaurant, which has silenced those naysayers who claimed the “gimmicky” idea of ordering your meal through a table touchpad would soon wear thin. Instead, diners love this “great concept” with its entertaining novelty – you can even order a taxi home from your table. The food is an accessible pan-Asian mixed bag with new dishes such as scallop tartare, Malaysian beef rendang and Japanese tofu salad ‘hiyayakko’ alongside soft-shell crab maki rolls, delicate squid and spring onion dumplings, Peking duck and a “winning version” of the ubiquitous black cod."

At Inamo, you can place orders via a 3D menu, choose from a selection of virtual tablecloths, find out about the local neighbourhood and even order a taxi home, all from the comfort of your seat."
