"Restaurants South African Peckham. Destination neighbourhood dining in Peckham – that’s the shtick at Kudu, a good-looking restaurant specialising in South African-inspired small plates. Done out like a sleek, vintage lounge bar, its weekend brunch deal (11am-2.30pm) involves some thrillingly clever takes on the classics – from shakshuka with burnt kale or boerewors (sausage rolls) with egg, German mustard and crispy shallots to sourdough waffles with home-cured trout, crème fraîche and poached eggs."
"One of the highlights of Peckham’s pickings, the brunch at South African-inspired Kudu is just as sprightly as the rest of its acclaimed menu. Sourdough waffles come with home cured bacon or trout, and a brioche roll is stuffed to breaking point with densely meaty, spiced boerewors sausage, fried egg, German mustard and crunchy frazzled onions. Even if you’re not one for a sweet brunch, leave room to share the babka after – served as French toast, the chocolate-swirled brioche is topped with hazelnuts, candied kumquats and lashings of miso-infused caramel."

"Nanny Bills at Boxpark won’t disappoint with its choice of hand-pressed burgers and buns. Created in homage to the founder Darren Simpson’s grandma, who operated a thriving café through the ‘70s and ‘80s, Nanny Bills has something of a neighbourhood-minded vibe about it. Classic Nanny Bills burgers include ‘The Dalston Dip’ (a double beef patty with American cheese, onions and gravy) and ‘The Hot Mess’ (a buttermilk fried chicken patty with American cheese, smoked bacon and hot sauce)."
"Award-winning burgers and unrivalled taste, Nanny Bills' vegan and vegetarian range will have your mouth watering. Try their The Lula burger for their famous black bean & quinoa patty, topped with vegan cheddar, vegan burger sauce and glazed pineapple. If you're still craving the taste of meat, their Chick Thing plant-based chicken fillet will fill that fix."
"Chiswick High Road, London W4 1SY Villa Di Geggiano is a splendid 15th-century palazzo in Chianti with a noble lineage and acres of vineyards producing some of the most delicious red wine in the world. It also has an outpost in west London - a slice of Tuscan decadence and hospitality on the Chiswick High Road, with a front garden full of olive trees where you can drink cocktails (try the passionfruit martini) and eat cured meats from the Bianchi Bandinelli family's favourite salumeria. Inside, the restaurant is grand and bustling, in the best way, with a small but perfectly formed menu of delights - the tagliolini with fresh crab meat is delicious, the pici cacio e pepe is perfect and the Tuscan sausages, flown in from Siena, have become famous among foodies."
"Lots of restaurants promise to transport you to Italy, but Villa di Geggiano makes a more convincing case than most. The jolly white and green exterior ..." Read our full review"

"Fourpure’s location at the back of a fairly unlovely trading estate would be — otherwise — the last place you’d choose to spend a Saturday afternoon. However, read the tap list on the monitor behind the bar, and you’ll know you’re in the right place. The bar carries 16 lines, dispensing the brewery’s core range, many more of their somewhat leftfield beers, and the odd guest draught."
"Completely unshowy and without any hint of pretention, Fourpure has been making top quality beer in the most seemingly simple of locations. It’s already gaining a wider audience and their taproom is well worth a visit. It’s also worth mentioning their excellent blog which is great reading for people who love beer and life in general."
"Restaurants Contemporary European Herne Hill. A brunch and pizza spot at the Brockwell Lido Café from the sourdough specialists. A waterside venue with a difference, this lovely alfresco space nudges up against the 1930s art deco splendour of the lido."
"The much-loved pizza pioneers 400 Rabbits have taken over the Lido café in Brockwell Park. Expect toasted banana bread, oat milk porridge and Portuguese eggs with sourdough. Wash it all down with a C-Bomb juice (orange, lemon and cherry) or a Bloody Mary."
"St Andrew Holborn escaped the Great Fire, mainly due to the natural barrier of the Holborn Valley, through which ran the river, Fleet. Before the building of the viaduct, the steep Holborn Hill was one of the most dangerous parts of London. The church was rebuilt by Wren anyway."
"St. Andrew Holborn was the largest of Wren’s fifty-one City churches, and was heavily restored after suffering damage in World War II"
"If there ever was a defining landmark in London, it’s the Tower Bridge. Often mistaken by tourist as the London Bridge, the Tower Bridge is quite a bit more ornate and lovely than the plain London Bridge to it’s west. Traffic (both foot and car) abounds on the Tower Bridge, but that doesn’t mean you can’t visit the inner workings of the bridge and learn all about it."
"Basically Tower Bridge is one of the single most photogenic spots in London. From whatever angle you decide to photograph it, it looks brilliant. I personally love photos taken on the bridge, as it really gives you an idea of the scale and size of this architectural feat."
"I spent two years working in a corporate office just next to it, and despite hating my job, I used to love looking out of the window and seeing Tower Bridge. Like all photogenic landmarks it has more than one angle from which it looks Instagrammable and fabulous."
