It is a National Nature Reserve, London's largest Site of Special Scientific Interest and an European Special Area of Conservation."

"Japanese , Sushi"

"This is sushi master Endo Kazutoshi’s new Notting Hill spot (he also runs the Michelin-starred Endo at Rotunda). It opened during lockdown and, as you might expect, is doing superlative sushi delivery. It’s a tight menu - just three boxes, including a premium sashimi selection."

"If the name sounds familiar, it's because he's the man behind Endo at Rotunda, the very well rated high-end sushi restaurant with a view in White City."

"Japan and Peru may be nearly 10,000 miles away from each other, but they have more in common that you may think. When Japanese immigrants first arrived in the south American country in the 19th century, they discovered a mutual love of raw fish, which lead to the creation of the fusion nikkei cuisine. Soho restaurant Chotto Matte is perpetually throwing a party to celebrate its love of nikkei food, with dishes on the menu including a star dish scallop aji amarillo nigiri, which sees sweet scallop mixed with sour, fiery South American chilli."
