• Borough Market — Doobydobap
  London's most famous food market, and expresses affection for revisiting old favorite stalls.
• The Ginger Pig — Doobydobap
  Praised as "the best sausage roll I've ever had" — made in-house from butcher's off-cuts, wrapped in puff pastry, and served warm.
  Heads up: Notes that the portion is quite large and heavy, making it fairly filling.

  Heads up: The bubble and squeak was rated as 'not very flavorful.'
• Beigel Bake — Doobydobap
  Always freshly baked, soft bagels with a great contrast between salty beef and pickles — rated as better than New York bagels.
  Heads up: It's chaotic inside with a long queue, though it moves very fast — just be careful not to get mustard on your clothes.
• Monmouth Coffee Company — Doobydobap
  Called the piccolo "one of the best coffees of my life" — caramelly, toasty, and chocolatey — and praised the cane sugar here as something special.
• Humble Crumble — Doobydobap
  Raved about the apple-cinnamon layers topped with crumble and hot vanilla custard — so good it's unforgettable.
  Heads up: It's a chain, so there are several locations around the city.
• Kiln — Doobydobap
  Called it "one of the best steaks I've ever had in my life," and praised the signature clay pot noodles — under £10 — as "one of my all-time favorite noodle dishes."

  Recommends pausing by the lake to soak in the feeling of being right in the middle of London.
  Heads up: Warns to watch out for aggressive swans, which are protected by the Crown.
• Camden Market — Doobydobap
  Looks like a tourist trap, but the food turned out to be surprisingly good.
  Heads up: Looks like a massive tourist trap at first glance.
• Al Yemen Restaurant مطعم اليمن — Doobydobap
  The lamb in the lamb mandi was so tender it fell right off the bone, and the shimmering turmeric-and-broth rice was called the real star — "you don't need anything else with this."
• Brown's Hotel, a Rocco Forte hotel — Doobydobap
  Called the scones "amazing scones" for being buttery and crumbly rather than bread-like, and loved the live piano and the historic hotel atmosphere.

• Golden Chippy — Doobydobap
  Raved that the beer batter is light and crispy and the fish melts in your mouth, and that the mushy peas are vividly green and fresh.
  Heads up: A bit out of central London, but worth the trip. Recommends cod for a firmer bite, or haddock (£1 more) for something softer.
• Natural History Museum — Doobydobap
  Raves that the life-size blue whale and the Victorian architecture are the highlights.
  Heads up: Tip: head up to the second floor to get a proper view of the whole museum building and the monkey-like details on the ceiling.

  The charcoal aroma and the köfte — crispy outside, juicy inside — were called "a symphony of flavor" and "truly amazing," with the grilled halloumi also highly praised.
• Maureen's Brixton Kitchen — Doobydobap
  The jerk chicken is smoky and spicy yet still juicy, and the oxtail is so tender it melts in your mouth, tendons and all — praised so highly he 'gets emotional just talking about it.'
  Heads up: There's no sign outside, and it operates out of someone's home (backyard), so it can be hard to find.
• Chinatown Bakery — Doobydobap
  The signature pineapple bun, with its crisp cookie crust and yeasted dough, earned a "10 out of 10."
  Heads up: Notes that Lily, who came along, gave the pineapple bun a 7.5/10.

  The pie crust, tinted yellow with curry powder and turmeric, is wonderfully crispy, filled with spicy beef — all for just £2.50.
  Heads up: Notes that the queue to buy bakery items is very long.
• Hafız Mustafa 1864 Knightsbridge — Doobydobap
  Praised for baklava that's moist with syrup but never overdone, and künefe with a lovely contrast between crispy kadayıf and salty-sweet cheese.
  Heads up: The baklava is very sweet, so it's recommended to pair it with black tea.
• Sheba Brick Lane - Awarded Best Curry House In UK — Doobydobap
  The tandoori prawns, marinated in yogurt and spices, were perfectly cooked and incredibly juicy, and the coconut-based chicken Xacuti was 'genuinely delicious.'
  Heads up: Advises that if you like a sweeter curry, go for the Tikka Masala.

  A traditional Sunday roast with roasted meat, crispy potatoes, and a Yorkshire pudding that soaks up the gravy beautifully — the Scotch egg also 'scored well.'

  Free admission makes it a perfect place to spend time on a rainy day.
