Traditional Punjabi restaurant that has been serving aromatic, spicy dishes since 1972. Bring your own alcohol.

I rediscovered this place recently having not been for years and now I keep returning. The geological galleries are my favourites.

A great place for an informal lunch or dinner while in East London. It’s one of Nuno Mendes’ projects and it is housed in the impressive Town Hall at Bethnal Green. We filmed with Mendes in his kitchen when the restaurant first launched.

A great place to wander get lost and and escape the city.

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