Bao Borough
The Borough Market location of Bao is a handy spot when you need a quick fix. The buns are good, but the bigger Taiwanese plates are even better.
Sushi Kanesaka
Sushi Kanesaka is London’s most expensive omakase restaurant, but this Mayfair spot isn’t worth the price tag.
Mambow
Small in size but big in flavour, Mambow is a Malaysian spot in Clapton where you should plan to order greedily.
Evi's
Evi's is a Greek restaurant in East Dulwich that's perfect for a hastily arranged Tuesday gossip sponsored by meltingly soft pork skewers.
Antepliler Künefe & Patisserie
Antepliler Künefe & Patisserie on Green Lanes serves some of London’s best künefe in a warm and inviting dining room that’s as perfect for a one-to-one as it is a late-night group dessert run.
Arlington
Arlington is a restaurant risen from the ashes of Le Caprice, and at this St. James's spot, it feels like the good times of the 1980s never went away.

Moko
Moko, an African-Caribbean music bar and restaurant in Tottenham, is the answer to pretty much every social dilemma.
Diddy's
If clubs are impersonal, sticky-floored sweatboxes, Diddy’s in London Fields is the anti-club. Plus it serves good coffee in the day.
Emy's Kitchen
Emy's Kitchen is a Turkish spot that specialises in the kind of breakfasts that will leave you rolling out the door and mumbling about heaven being in Crouch Hill.

Trejo's Tacos
You can have a good time at Trejo’s Tacos—especially after a trip to Portobello Market, and if passable tacos, satisfying nachos, and great cocktails do it for you.
