"Number two on our list of the bests building and architecture in London is the stunning sky gardens. This is one of the most modern buildings found in the city. Also, its one of the highest public gardens to be found in the United Kingdom."
"The original Camden parlour is now back open for fans of Chin Chinâs famous ice creams (churned with the aid of liquid nitrogen for a rich, dense, almost chewy texture.) They are available by the scoop with toppings, but there are also a dozen or so full-on dishes making use of them, from a tiramisu sundae to nachos with chargrilled pineapple, salted-caramel sauce, dark-chocolate ice cream and blue-corn waffle tacos. Open Friday â Sunday, 12 p.m."
"Address: 49-50 Camden Lock, Camden Town, London NW1 8AF and 54 Greek Street, London W1D 3DS. Whether you're a science buff or not, you have to head here just for the experience - you get to watch as your dessert is frozen to order using liquid nitrogen. Toppings and sauces are kept in beakers to complete the science lab vibe, and flavours are outlandish - think pandan leaf and black sesame cake."
"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."
"Nestled in the heart of Soho lives Cutter & Squidge, artisan cake makers who specialise in extravagance and wonder. Serving up slices of uniquely flavoured and decorated cakes along with their signature Biskie - a mix of cake, biscuit and cookie topped with marshmallow, buttercream and other goodies - itâs a one-of-a-kind shop in London. And itâs not just for the dairy eaters and gluten-friendly."
"We wonderedâŠ"Can we vegan-ise our favourite blueberry lemon cheesecake cake?" đ€ Wonder no more⊠we did it!!. Blueberry buttercream, tangy cheesecake and vanilla sponge đ° Head down to Soho today for a slice, also available online to order đ.

"It also means smashing it on your socials, because EL&N (which confusingly rebranded from Ălan CafĂ©) is arguably the most Instagrammable place in town, perhaps due to its insatiable flower and love heart walls. EL&N started out on Park Lane and quickly became the influencersâ hangout of choice thanks to more pink than youâll find in Elton Johnâs walk-in wardrobe."
"A Middle Eastern version of tres leches cake with saffron-spiced sponge, whipped cream and lots of sweet vanilla milk â this is soft, melt-in-your-mouth moist, so refreshing and just mind-blowingly good. EL&N isnât just a pink, picture-perfect spot for the âgram."
"The overworked perfectionist behind this truly indie coffee shop offers proof you donât need to have Antipodean ancestry to be an unflappably affable London barista. Weâll ignore the fact that British owner/operator Ben Townsend spent 8 years in Melbourne, acquiring Australian citizenship along the way. In his narrow shop, Ben fastidiously pulls every shot of Square Mile espresso as if it were lifesaving: Doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital would be wise to prescribe 3 per day to their patients."
"They donât mess about at The Espresso Room, MOB. This serious coffee shop chain has built a serious reputation of one of the most well-regarded specialty coffee shops in London thanks to their meticulous attention to detail and highly knowledgeable staff. Whether youâre after a long black or a matcha latte, you can rest assured that The Espresso Room will provide you with a definitive version of that drink. 71 Lincoln's Inn Fields, WC2A 3JH"
"Restaurants Coffeeshops Bloomsbury. Capacity doesnât make it far into double digits at this small but perfectly formed shrine to straight caffeine. Choice may be limited too (artisan coffees from Caravan, teas, sandwiches, cakes and some brunch staples), but we love Bloomsburyâs Espresso Room, especially when we can sit outside in fine weather."
"If you love doughnuts, you need to try Longboys in BOXPARK Wembley. Their artisan finger doughnuts are a whole new player in the game, challenging the humble glazed ring, their menu is full of delicious flavour twists and perfect pastries, as well as soft-serve ice-cream. Their menu is always changing but one classic that remains is there Lemon Meringue Pie doughnut and we say try it!"
"Longboys are all about gorgeous doughnuts, excellent coffee, and soft-serve ice cream delights, bringing their joy and passion for food to BOXPARK Wembley. Their doughnuts are made from a light brioche base and gourmet fillings that give them just enough sweetness and a complex flavour profile. These treats are next level decadent without the extra calories."
"This small chain of informal Indian eateries is a firm favourite of ours for a cheap and cheerful meal that doesnât cut corners on taste. Alongside classic curries, dhals and biryanis, choose from a selection of dishes inspired by the street food of India, such as bhel (a puffed rice salad) or aloo tikki chaat (a spiced potato cake). Or to keep choosing to a minimum, go for one of the thalis â a platter including bread, rice and a selection of mains for little over a tenner."
"Masala Zone offers good, hearty Indian food across a number of locations, all featuring unfussy and comfortable atmospheres. Children are well accommodated, with under-sevens having the option of eating from the versatile children's menu. With seven outposts in London, this could be a good option the next time you plan a family meal in the city."
"Delicious food uniquely from the true sources of Indian food â the gourmet homes & street stalls across Indiaâs regions."
"13/06/2021: Non so se sia cambiato qualcosa nel corso degli anni, ma come rapporto qualitĂĄ / prezzo Ăš sempre stato ottimo. Si puĂł scegliere il grado di piccante del pollo ( veramente buono ) e le bibite sono self service e a volontĂĄ ,con un prezzo fisso nel menĂș che si sceglie.Mi sono fermato piu volte da Nando's e sono contento che questa catena sia resistita nel corso degli anni.Consigliato. 29/05/2021: Went to Nando's because we were starving."
"This Portuguese chain is the peopleâs choice for peri-peri chicken, but also makes its money with burgers, wraps, pittas, salads and steaks. As a family-friendly go-to option, it has special menus for young ânandinosâ too. Flagship site: 10 Frith Street, W1D 3JF"
"From private supper club to Brixton Village stall to six street food restaurants in fashionable hotspots across south and east London, Mama Lan has plenty to crow about. In fact, its story began even further back, with the snack stall in a Beijing street market run by founder Ning Maâs mother and grandfather. The menu is refined, with colourful noodle dishes vying for flagship status with mouth-watering dumplings, and all laced with authentic flavours."
