"20 Fenchurch Street was beautifully designed by renowned architect Rafael Viñoly. The building spans 37 storeys and rhubarb occupies the top three levels alongside the public space known as Sky Garden, which provides 45,000 sq ft of high level amenity space. Visitors can wander around the exquisitely landscaped gardens with 360 degree panoramic views of London and all of the flora and fauna they need!"
"Travel 43 floors up and see a unique perspective of landmarks like The Shard, St Paulâs Cathedral, Tower Bridge and more. With massive floor-to-ceiling glass windows, an open-air terrace, and beautifully landscaped scenery, youâll have an abundance of options for IG pics. It also houses a swanky restaurant and bar, so you can relax and soak in the views with a drink in hand."
"A zany premium parlour all about indulgence to the highest degree, Chin Chin Labs is home to liquid nitrogen ice cream. While this might sound like a worn gimmick, Chin Chin Labs were among the first to this trend - a method of freezing the ice creamâs custard base instantly to make for a smoother and more flavourful result. Offering trusty flavours like burnt butter caramel and mango lassi, for those feeling extra indulgent their brownie cookie sundae will more than satisfy a sweet tooth."
"Chin Chin pioneered the use of liquid nitrogen to make ice cream in a retail setting when it opened its first ice cream âlabâ in Camden Lock in 2010. Its founders were convinced that hand churning with liquid nitrogen was better than any other method, and they had stumbled on the future of ice cream. Nowadays, the company has grown to three locations and over 300 innovative flavours, from sweetcorn to wild blueberry to coffee and olive oil."
"For truly breathtaking ice-cream creations, head on down to Chin Chin. This little dessert spot is famous for its extravagant flavors (you can find things like meringue pie and tonka bean on the menu!), and you can even grab a signature hot chocolate if you want something to enjoy on the go. Such a great option if youâre looking for the best desserts in London."
"A Biskie is a sandwiched dessert thatâs essentially a cross between a cake and a cookie and is filled with cream or other ingredients. You can find Biskies only at Cutter and Squidge, a cute little bakery with locations in Soho and Bank. Their Salted Caramel Biskie is award winning and if youâre vegan or GF youâll still find delicious options to choose from."
"A post shared by Cutter & Squidge (@cutterandsquidge) on May 28, 2018 at 5:50am PDT. Just yards away from its previously successful pop-up space, Cutter & Squidge's Soho home is full of sweet delights. Choose from a wide selection of its speciality biskies, or opt for vegetarian marshmallows, dream cakes, honeycomb or its award-winning salted caramel."
"Each one features two biscuit pieces closing in on a layer of cream to create a beautiful dessert sandwich. Theyâre the perfect sugary pick-me-up and come in a selection of creative flavours. Try the rich billionaire dreambar, which is served with an extra layer of chocolate in the middle."
"What: We debated long and hard as to whether a hybrid deserved a place on this sacred list, but given the fact the cronut now has an international trademark it seems only right and proper to acknowledge it in all its flaky glory. For those who havenât encountered this creation on their Instagram feeds (firstly where have you been hiding?) the cronut is Dominique Anselâs unique creation which sees a ring of croissant pastry deep-fried, sugar-coated and filled in much the same way as a doughnut. To ensure we never tire of this ingenious invention, the bakery cunningly release a new flavour combination every month to lure us in."
"If you happen to be strolling down picturesque Elizabeth Street, in Belgravia, in the early hours of the morning you'll be hit by two things. First, the glorious smell, and secondly, the long queue of those eager to get their hands on one of Dominique Ansel's delightful baked goods. The man behind the famous Cronut (a doughnut-croissant hybrid) has decided to make his way across the pond to show you what you've been missing out on (ask the Manhattanites - they quite happily queue up to four hours. TRUE STORY)."

"Over in Notting Hill, Cloud Twelve is a wellness and lifestyle club set across three floors. Thereâs a salon, spa and holistic wellness clinic, plus a healthy brasserie and creche. Treatments include drawl-worthy massages, facials, pre and post-natal rituals and treatments specifically designed for men."
"Today we are going to explore even more of Londonâs central highlights, including the British Museum, Covent Garden, St. Paulâs Cathedral, and Shakespeareâs Globe. Today all of the attractions are within walking distance but you may want to use public transit to reach some of them. It may also be a good day to use a hop-on hop-off bus if you have a free ticket with the London Pass as the bus routes go to or near all the attractions on todayâs route."
"Along the south bank (always worth a wander), you can stop in at Shakespeareâs Globe Theatre, the Tate Modern Art Gallery, and even quickly cross the Millennium bridge for a visit to St. Paulâs Cathedral. The Globe and St. Paulâs Cathedral are both included on the London Pass, whilst the Tate Modern is free to enter."
"This spectacular theater is a replica of Shakespeare's open-roof, wood-and-thatch Globe Playhouse (built in 1599 and burned down in 1613),âŠ"
"All Souls Church Langham Place is one of the most famous London Churches because of its location next door to BBC Broadcasting House, at the northern end of Regent Street in the district of Marylebone. You often see this London landmark in BBC broadcasts, and its easily recognisable because of its distinctive Neoclassical circular columned front and spire. It was designed by John Nash, architect to the Prince Regent (later King George IV), who was also responsible for remodelling Buckingham Palace and the layout of St Jamesâs Park."
"Set in the private Home Park with a beautiful lake and landscaped gardens, definitely worth visiting if you are in or around Windsor. Harry and Meghan are set to move into Frogmore Cottage in the grounds of Frogmore Estate."
"Plain on the outside, plain on the inside â only you're talking about two very different kinds of plain here. While the Metropolitan's exterior is anonymous to the point of charmlessness, the interiors are, particularly for this part of London, a pleasant surprise. Icy-calm, uncluttered and understated, though with some arresting and endearing touches â vivid block-coloured carpets, splendid orchids, big sofas arranged alongside big windows the better to enjoy the big views over the park outside."
"BEST SPA IN LONDON FOR: PERTINENT, INTUITIVE TREATMENTS WITH A TOP-OF-THEIR-GAME ROSTER OF THERAPISTS. Small but perfectly formed, the spa here often gets overlooked for bigger players, but this is one of Londonâs best-kept secrets. Not only is the space completely sleek and serene â no plinky-plonky music or trickling fountains â but the treatments pack an enormous punch."
"Robata is a Japanese restaurant based in the heart of Soho on Old Compton Street. The word Robata refers to a method of cooking over hot charcoal, and the restaurant practices this, with an open kitchen where you can watch the chefs preparing your meals. With an extensive dinner menu, there's something for everyone, whether you're after meat, fish or veggie options."
