No better breakfast in London, luckily just five minutes from my office.

Having spent many years studying there, I have a soft spot for Central Saint Martins, which finally closed in September 2011 when the college relocated to Kings Cross. Despite being such a dive, the old building had such history and character and I grew very fond of its tatty charms. As plans for its take over by Foyles bookshop go ahead, I look forward to having a coffee in the new building's cafe when it re-opens.

A beautiful selection of products curated by Momosan's owner Momoko Mizutani whose interest is to link different cultures in practical, resourceful and imaginative ways.

My favourite library when I was a student, I still love to wander and look up to its Renaissance sculptures. 

This is the stuff nightmares are made of. Good nightmares. A perverse Aladdin's cave of treasure and artefacts.
