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.
Venn Street Market

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.

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.

Order your favourite fresh stone baked pizza and beer (or cider/wine), squeeze in with the locals at one of the bustling long tables, then kick back and enjoy the atmosphere and live dj beats. Alternatively if the weather is nice, head outside and find a spot to chill and watch the canal boats float by. Welcome to East London.

If you want to try how the original English Gin coctails are made, that's the best place to do it. As London weather is fairly claimed to be unpredictable, there are heaters and sheltered Cabanas provided. Cosy atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious cocktails help you to perceive London from it's luxe side.

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.

Yet another live music asset to the Camden Town Strip (and more recently Shoreditch), the Blues Kitchen brings the best all-American music and style to London. Certainly a great night out, but the diner aspect should not be overlooked. If the words BBQ, ribs, wings, burgers, smoked or buffalo make your mouth water, welcome to your happy place.

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.

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.

As soon as you nestle yourself into this cosy joint, you’ll be made to feel at home.

The Breakfast Club is great for anyone looking for a cool place to eat. This American styled diner is brilliant, and people from all over the world visit. Evidence of this is seen on the walls, with customers leaving behind their train and plane tickets, foreign currencies and even group photos. There are board games too! Amazing atmosphere.
