Hoppers

Sri Lankan wonder cooking.

 

Nestled in the midst of Soho you can find one of the most moorish Asian restaurants in London, specifically taking on Sri Lankan and South Indian dishes. Similar to Dishoom, the venue endears itself immediately with its authentic touches, transporting you immediately to a place far far away where you can switch off, grab a glass of some sort of Arrack cocktail and eat to your heart’s content.

And here, food is king. It’s all about the dosas and hoppers (obvs) - essentially bowl and funnel shaped pancakes that are insanely good. You then get a bunch of karis (curries) and chutneys to have with them, and embrace the delicious flavours. There are also plenty of other dishes on top of this - don’t miss the bone marrow varuval or the beef rib fry.

Food of the day: Honestly, everything on this menu is exceptional but if in doubt ask your friendly waiter and they’ll look after you. One word of warning - you will be rolling out of here so just don’t have anything too strenuous planned for after ;)

We recently returned from a fantastic trip to Oslo, where sauna culture is huge. All Norwegians love to sauna. And we are now absolute converts to the sauna life too. The difficulty here in London is that saunas (and spas) are not the most affordable.

Islington is definitely the prime centre of London’s gastropub scene right now, with the likes of The Pig & Butcher and The Drapers Arms leading the way to show the rest of the city how to do pub food. And, after a recent renovation, The Baring is pushing those boundaries again with a gorgeous reinvention serving some fantastic dishes.

Who doesn’t enjoy getting a bit of creativity into their lives? Get those juices flowing at cone8, a lovely little pottery studio in the quieter recesses of Hackney Wick. Some might say it’s the perfect aperitif ahead of an awesome night out across the canal in the busier areas of The Wick.
