London is the gastronomic capital of the globe, according to France's most famous, and 19 Michelin Star decorated chef Alain Ducasse, not to mention the most important city in the world for restaurants. The local Londoners agree, and have recommended some of their favourite places where they like to practice eating out more than in. From the humble street food, to the Cinnamon Club's 'Bollywood burner', to the 3 Michelin Starred Ducasse Truffle Degustation Menu, this city allows culinary indulgence of astronomical proportions.

This place has quick and easy buffet style hot food suitable for lunches and dinners, integrated into a huge organic supermarket for any other bits and pieces you fancy. Eating here is a treat for the ego because it makes you feel so good about yourself – particularly with all the recycling options after you've finished!

For something slightly different. Yes the Ginger Pig patties are juicy and delicious as you would expect from all top burger joints in the city- competition is that fierce for burgers, only the very best will do. However, it's the caramelised red onion chutney and rosemary salt fries that put the icing on the cake.

Take the long route and walk there over London Bridge for some mean views of Tower Bridge. Once there, you can buy yourself lunch and then simply peruse through the various stalls, taste-testing the other treats on offer. Finish it all off with a pint at The Rake. It may be the smallest pub in London but it's more than a little bit awesome.

It's edgy and artsy place where the coolest people meet to
a) have a nice meal
b) have drinks
c) play ping pong
d) play snookers
e) listen to wonderful live music
f) dance after the best DJ-s.
Menu has good variety. Prices are not the cheapest but I think this place's atmosphere is worth every penny.

This under-appreciated gem of Clapham is the 'corner shop' of weekend markets, a cozy and compact operation where compared to its larger counterparts a relatively limited choice is actually a good thing. Held every Saturday right beside Clapham Common, the Venn Street market's charm has established it as a necessary pit-stop for the Clapham locals.

You'll be spoiled for choice here, there's everything, it's quality, and it's reasonably priced. The only downside is having to decide. Grab a drink while you explore the winding lofty arcades and find something that takes your fancy. Sit in the market rows and enjoy the live music while you eat, then walk it off to Federation for a coffee after.

Each food stall is worth the visit on its own but Street Feast shines because it is more than the sum of its parts with a sense of community that only tasty and unique food can create. Locations include Dalston, Lewisham and Battersea with more planned so check out their website for the upcoming locations.

Maltby Street has all of the smells and tastes of Borough Market but with way less clientele! It's not yet too popular that it's impossible to move, which is sometimes the case at Borough Market on sunny weekends.

This is a science. Twenty hour slow-risen sourdough, topped with carefully selected local produce, and cooked to perfection for a mere 40 seconds in a 500 degree oven built by specialised artisans from Naples. The result is a quality of pizza like no other in London, and best of all it doesn't cost an arm and a leg like most UK pizzerias.

As soon as you nestle yourself into this cosy joint, you’ll be made to feel at home. The iconic little cafe has changed little during its 100-year history, and its unique Art-Deco interior and family-ran charm has earned it the admiration of locals and celebrities alike – as the cafe's elusive autograph book proves.

So you've done the high street shops and department stores on Oxford Street. If you want an escape for a few hours or even just 30 minutes you can. In just moments you can step away from it all. You can watch the world go by in the square or sip on a traditional pint in the Lamb & Flag pub.

Because Klaxons, The Horrors, Florence and The Machine, Maccabees, DIIV, Japandroids, Santogold, Jose Gonzalez, Kwes, These New Puritans, Crystal Fighters etc have been there and keep coming back in our hearts. This is a place where you will see bands before they spread their wings and fly to bigger screens. Honestly, best indie-live-music venue!

Cocktails can often be an expensive affair, but Seven manage to produce a changing seasonal menu of quality cocktails for £5-6 a piece (unheard of in London). A casual evening can easily be spent sipping your way around the entire menu, and the outgoing selection of tapas make for a well rounded venue on a night out.
