One of my favorite plans for a Sunday morning.

The many book stores dotted along this strip can provide hours of inspiration. Aside from those selling new books, several specialise in second-hand and antiquarian books.

Being an East London boy at heart I am partial to an occasional fix of café culture. Pellici's has been running since the start of the last century, to which me, my father and my father's fathers have all enjoyed its mix of tasty Italian/London grub and energetic atmosphere. If you're visiting, make sure you drop by, as it will provide a valuable, forever-depleting education into what East London is really all about.

I'm waiting for a vegetarian-friendly event to get the full dining experience, but in the meantime there's wine!

Small little Rose Garden in a beautiful neighbourhood. All the houses surrounding the park have a dutch appeal to them.
