"Restaurants Ice-cream parlours Soho. Those nitro-fuelled experimentalists at Chin Chin are the Willy Wonkas of the ice-cream world, and this Soho shop is an ostentatious showcase for their wares. Not only their signature ices (anyone for halva black tahini?), but also full-on desserts â thereâs some seriously elaborate stuff going on here amid all the bells and whistles."
"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 something a little different, head to Chin Chin Labs, the go-to parlour for liquid nitrogen ice cream in London. Watch as your dessert is frozen to order using a dash of liquid nitrogen, and select from an exciting array of weekly-changing flavours at this cool cafe in Camden."
"If you gave a bunch of five year olds a box of crayons and told them to draw birthday cakes, youâd probably end up with something that looks quite a bit like the celebration cakes at this Soho bakery and cafĂŠ. Thatâs not a bad thing. Cakes with names like âStrawberry Eat-On Messâ*, âSâMoresâ, âApple Pieâ â as a cake, and âPopcorn Dripâ are short on cake and very long on globs of frosting, fillings, toppings and childlike humor."
"A biscuit isnât quite a dessert â unless itâs in the hands of Cutter & Squidge, that is. Enter the Biskie, the Soho bakeryâs signature dessert which sees two discs of a cake-cookie hybrid sandwich an array of flavoured creamy fillings. The chocolate sâmore version is filled with buttercream and a handmade marshmallow, while the blueberry cheesecake version layers jam, cheesecake cream and a wedge of digestive biscuit."
"We make everything from scratch and where possible we use real British ingredients or source from British producers where we canât.â. The sweet stuff: Cakes and (wince) âbiskiesâ. The stuff looks next-level, though, and the mixed selection boxes would make anyoneâs day."
"Vanilla sponge with layers of Signorelliâs signature coffee brew, mascarpone frosting â tangy and just a tad sweet â plus a generous dusting of cocoa powder on top. 7 Victory Parade, London E20 1FS or 15 Endeavour Square, London E20 1JN"
"One of the most consistent cafes in the game and an East Finchley standby, Campbell and Syme is now back on full service, offering two espressos and three filters from its rotating cast of single origin coffees â currently, a macerated natural process coffee from Honduras and another from the well-regarded Aricha area in Sidamo, Ethiopia are standing out."
"By day, Tea Darling, way out west in the wilds of Acton Town (actually a London suburb easily reached on the Piccadilly and the District Line), is a really old fashioned tea shop with vintage china and a good assortment of home made cakes and tea sandwiches, including gluten free and vegan variations. On selected evenings (check their website) they host jazz and comedy nights when you can stick to tea or coffee with cake or bring your own bottle (ÂŁ5 corkage fee). If you arrive in your best 40s or 50s vintage outfit, all the better."
"Restaurants Contemporary European Angel. Thereâs no denying that Frederickâs lush garden and expertly tended plants are a thing of beauty for those who sit outside at alfresco tables. However, the owners of this Islington classic have also struck gold with a spacious conservatory-style Garden Room that offers the same gorgeous outlook, but with the bonus of a roof that keeps unwelcome rain, excessive sunshine and wind at bay."
"The narrow frontage of this Camden Passage restaurant gives no hint of what's to be found at the back. One of London's great garden restaurant spaces, part of it's laid out in patio but there are also mature gardens too. It's popular as a wedding space though, so check ahead to see if it's booked out."
"The Oxford Street shopping area is the centre of Londonâs shopping, a 1.5 mile precinct with over 90 flagship stores and high street brands, 500 restaurants, and a vibe like no where else in the world. Find London fashion shops, luxury flagship stores, and top London brands including:. UKâs iconic department stores, including Selfridges, John Lewis & Partners, Debenhams, House of Fraser and Marks & Spencer."
"Wondering what to do in London with kids at the Natural History museum in London?. The question is where to begin?. Visit the Red Zone to see the monstrous Earth Ball, and treasures from the earth including real gold nuggets and a piece of KRYPTONITE!"
"Known as the place angsty teenagers, punks and creatives go to hang out, Camden Market is a must-visit in London if you want to experience an energetic and engaging counterculture. Made up of a number of adjoining markets, youâll be able to find iconic band t-shirts, sterling silver jewellery, tattoo parlours and bespoke boutiques selling 1950s clothing and serious rock and roll attire. Camden Lock is the place to go for eating, with a huge range of street food stalls selling cuisine from all corners of the globe."
"Camden Town is home to a series of markets, encompassing an astonishingly eclectic array of goods to suit all tastes. Pick up some vintage clothes, handmade jewellery, music, or bric-a-brac. The market around Camden Lock features designers and artists, with a selection of international food vendors, too."
"Restaurants British Southwark. Jammed onto the side of an architectural practice in Southwark, this serene Aussie-style cafĂŠ-restaurant is something of a quiet classic in this part of town. Come the weekend, the standard breakfast menu (lots of eggs and avocado, as youâd expect) expands into brunch territory with a host of sizeable salads and burgers, waffles, pancakes and favourites such as sweetcorn fritters."
"She is a wonderful waitress for someone who is new to the role. Will come here again for her great service."
