"Chin Chin Ice Cream was lauded as Europe's first liquid nitrogen ice cream parlour when it opened up in 2010 and it hasnât taken long for that style to get a foothold in the favour of the general populace. Chin Chin now boasts multiple outlets across London where the clever clogs behind the counter are hand-churning enticing ice cream flavours like tonka bean and burnt butter caramel with liquid nitrogen. Adding liquid nitrogen means that the fat and water particles in the ice cream remain small and tightly knitted together during the freezing operation, resulting in intensely creamy ice cream."
"Coffee ice cream, a dusting of cocoa powder and the fluffiest, softest cloud of whipped mascarpone cream, the base of this brilliant tiramisu mash-up is a thick, super rich, brownie-like cookie that is soaked in espresso for an extra gooey texture. The Chin Chin team have truly outdone themselves here. Address: 54 Greek St, London W1D 3DS or 49-50 Camden Lock Pl, London NW1 8AF"
"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."
"This North London bakery describes itself as âa bit health consciousâ: cakes contain low fat and sugar, but enough to ensure they taste delicious. Cutter & Squidge cakes make the perfect centrepiece for a big celebration too: the Macron Drip Cake, for instance, is a layered creation decorated with macarons, topped with chocolate shards and finished with 24 carat gold. Vegan cakes are also available, and everything can be personalised."
"From show stopping dripped cakes to the glossiest salted caramel weâve ever seen, Cutter & Squidge is the bakery to go to if youâre in need of a special birthday treat or serious âIâm sorryâ gift. All products are made with 100% natural products and as little sugar as possible â donât worry, they still taste devilishly sweet. Where:Various locationsWebsite:www.cutterandsquidge.com"
"Fun shop, fun website, inventive creations â two sisters established this Soho mecca and are always a step ahead of foodie trends. The sisters explain, âWe are a bit health conscious and are not fans of overly fatty or sugar laden foods, so we always keep our fat and sugar content to âjust as much as needed to make something deliciousâ."
"Restaurants Haute cuisine Piccadilly. Yes, Londonâs ultimate name-drop restaurant is for trust-funders or special-occasion spendthrifts, but on hot days, the sedate terrace is still one of the best alfresco lunch spots in London, with vast parasols, mosaic floors, floral boxes and (if youâre so inclined) buckets of champagne on ice. You canât book a terrace table, but you can request one."
"You canât go wrong with dining at Londonâs most famous hotel. Just the palace-style dĂ©cor alone will make you feel like youâre among royalty. The Michelin-starred fare includes dishes like native lobster, dover sole and fillet of deer, while desserts include chocolate soufflĂ© and poached rhubarb."
"The gorgeousness of the Italian Renaissance style dining room at The Ritz can sometimes make you forget how great the food is here too. Chef John Williams may have been late to his Michelin star (a woeful oversight) but the cooking and service here is top class all the way."
"Fait Maison on Gloucester Road is another Instagram favourite. With beautiful floral interior and exterior displays, as well as perfectly presented afternoon tea, every detail has been manicured with Instagram in mind. In addition to their picture-perfect afternoon tea, they also offer delicious home-made Middle Eastern-inspired food."
"Critics find no shortage of favorable adjectives when referring to this sexy Knightsbridge restaurant, where tapas with a cutting-edge Pacific Rim influence are served in an elegantly modern dining room. The flavors of ginger, chilli, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves and kombu herb provide unique takes on these savory appetizers. Terrific service and a creative wine list round out the experience."
"Jamies Tudor Street is conveniently located right near Temple tube station, making it the perfect place to stop for some lunch. With hot main courses and a selection of delicious sandwiches, there's something to suit you whatever mood you're in. The extensive wine list is also perfect for complementing any meal, lunchtime or otherwise."
" This âlovely little Japanese grillâ may not be Londonâs prettiest spot, but locals find it hard to resist the allure of its sushi, sashimi & fla ..." Read our full review"
"With its promise of âhealth and happinessâ boxes and its âfresh not friedâ ethos, Itsu epitomises Asian-themed clean fast food. It was a colour-coded conveyor-belt pioneer, but sushi is just one of its âeat beautifulâ star turns â donât miss the âpotsuâ pots, fusion gyoza and rice bowls. Flagship site: 47 Kingâs Road, SW3 4NB"
"Springfield Park may not be well known but thatâs exactly why we love it. Nestled in between Clapton and Walthamstow, the park was originally a combination of grounds from three private houses (only the White House is still standing). Now itâs got cricket, tennis and athletics facilities and is right on the edge of the River Lea."
