Foodie Olympics
In spite of the financial crisis and of the bad reputation of British cuisine, London is one of the most beloved foodie destinations worldwide. In a city where brand new and exciting restaurants open on a daily basis, you’re bound to find almost anything you might be looking for in terms of food.
The upcoming Olympic Games are yet another chance to explore this huge gastronomic offer – at least according to restaurateurs Peter Prescott e Terence Conran, who seized the opportunity to complete Eat London 2, the brand new edition of their guide to the best of London’s food.
Be warned, though: this is not a simple restaurant guide – it is a book all about food and the people who make, sell and care about it.Its 15 chapters detail everything from the best fish and chip shops of East London to haute cuisine and artisan food stores in Mayfair. Every entry has been assessed for quality, originality, pleasant surroundings, convivial ambience, consistency and above all amusing personalities.
Eat London also includes recipes by some of Britain’s top chefs as well as recipes from some of the capital’s favourite restaurants, along with gorgeous photographs taken inside the kitchens and in the markets.
Whether you love hunting for street food or dining in starred restaurants, this guide will help you find your bearings through the foodie city. Enjoy!
