Set amongst one of my favourite housing estates in London – the Brunswick, Renoir cinema shows art-house films in it's two small but comfortable screens. I come here at least twice a month, and always on my own.

I grew up in the countryside, and if you're ever in need some instant escape from the city, this place is like a time warp. It's a huge space full of over grown mausoleums and graves, feels like a movie set. They also do tours.

British seasonal ingredients through an Italian lens....Parmesan fries, wild mushroom tagliatelle and tiramisu are some of my favourites.

J+A is a hidden and unpretentious café/ bar just off busy Clerkenwell Road - with outdoor seating!

A beautifully curated mix of plants from mature palms to microscopic succulents. It is impossible to leave empty-handed.
