Bringing the best of Italy to you.

 

With such a glut of Italian food on the market in London it’s hard to find something that rises up above the norm. However Lina Stores has done just that. Everything about them oozes Italian charm, from their gorgeous old locations and exquisite decorations, to their opulent delicatessens and way-too-stylish staff. It’s like being on the Amalfi Coast at a Prada event.

But let’s talk about the food as that’s why we’re here. Everything is amazing. But our strategy is usually to forsake the antipasti and secondi so we can concentrate 100% on the pasta dishes. This is where they shine. Pea & Ricotta Ravioli, Crab Linguine, 30-Egg Yolk Tagliolini with Truffles, Slow Cooked Lamb Ragù. It’s almost impossible to make any sort of choice as they will all blow you away. Just enjoy enjoy enjoy.

Tip of the day: The delicatessen isn’t just for show. Grab yourself some fresh pasta for tomorrow’s dinner, some antipasti for lunch, or some cannolis for a late night snack. Their offering is great, take advantage.

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.
