At just under 6 square miles Islington is the borough just north of the City, easily walked to from the centre and served by several tube stops. It's a varied area of beautiful green Georgian streets, busy thoroughfares, traditional and modern stores. It has a bit of everything, making it one of London's most popular neighbourhoods.
Ottolenghi has become something of an institution in London, now with three branches and numerous (less than successful) imitators. Serving great, less than obvious breakfast dishes but really shining at lunchtime with their colourful middle eastern, Turkish & Balkan salads. Brightening up the greyest of city days! Leave space for a cake, they are also the most beautiful you will see.And their jars of spices, pickles & jams make a great gift.
