Had the Buffalo cauliflower, Buffalo Burger, and Carbonara pasta. All were excellent. Pasta was remarkably rich and creamy. Was surprised to learn the restaurant was only open 3 weeks!

Vegan/plant-based food at its best.

There is something incredibly wholesome about walking into a place that focuses on tea. I find a…read morebig selection of tea really exciting, and tend to feverishly scroll through the menu until I find the strangest or most obscure brew. Gossip is great for that. It is conveniently located across the road from a gourmet coffee place. Depending what mood you're in, you have the best of teas and coffee at your disposal. It kind of feels like a little retreat, pleasantly detached from the hectic world outside. Saying that, if you want the kind of tranquility I am talking about, you are best off going during the week.

I like to gossip. Not related to that, I also like Gossip. The Café that is…read more I've walked past this place so many time without even a second thought until a friend suggested getting coffee and a sarnie from here. I mean, if the terror of being on Broadway Market and not going to Climpton and Sons for coffee isn't too much to handle this place is actually lovely. Great selection of sandwiches, teas (including flowering ones), coffee and other treats. There are a small number of seats in the back and a few outside, perfect for watching the world go by. I like it, I do. I shall be back.

I was finally able to try Dishoom on my last trip to London and we came by with a large group so…read morewere lucky to try a variety of dishes. First, I started with the mango lassi which was so fresh and naturally sweet. I loved the fennel seeds on top for added flavor. Such a great start to the meal. My favorites of the night were the chicken ruby (a must order and crowd pleaser), lamb biryani, and black daal. The chilli chicken was also a super flavorful app to share and the garlic naan was great as well. Everything is nicely flavored and I appreciate how patient and understanding the staff were with the food allergies and restrictions our group had. Definitely a must in London!

Everyone I know who visits London comes home raving about this place, so even though I'd never had…read moreIndian food before, I had to see what the hype was about. The restaurant is much bigger than it looks, with a front patio, a bar, and multiple dining rooms. It was completely packed. After 6 p.m. it's walk-in only, and the hostess gives you a buzzer while you wait. I started with the house chai, which was warm and perfectly spiced. For dinner I ordered the Chicken Ruby, basmati rice, garlic naan, and crispy okra fries. Now I get the hype. The Chicken Ruby was rich, spicy, and packed with flavor, the naan was perfect for soaking up every bit of sauce, and the okra fries were so crunchy I couldn't stop eating them. This place absolutely lived up to its reputation. They also serve breakfast, and there's so much on the menu that I already plan to come back a few more times before I leave London.

Holy shit this is some of the best vegan food I've ever had. In particular, this special: Venus…read morerice, black pea and jackfruit in a buckwheat pie with coconut, plum scotch bonnet jam, okra and plantain is AMAZING. In particular, the pie and its filling. Ommmmmmggg bursting with flavour and a great-sized portion. Sweet, savoury etc etc. For £9, it's a steal. The staff was also kind enough to pack another special for me for takeaway: black beluga dahl with apple mango chutney, cashews, green chili, coriander oil and cumin flatbread. Again, superb serving size and incredibly filling and tasteful. The nuts and dahl offset each other very well. Only the flatbread fell flat: pretty tasteless. The rest of the standard menu looks interesting as well: not just your boring avo and toast. All priced similarly. The interior is bordering on cramped though so make sure to get there early to grab a spot! Lots of tempting baked goodies on the counter as well. I would totally come here again if in the area.

The dove was a mixture of great beers but inconsistent food. I would surely return for the beers…read morethough. The beer menu is extensive and has a great many Belgian beers. They I think even had some of the Trappist beers on tap, not just in bottles. I love Belgian beers given the high abv and complex flavours, so I was right at home. They also had some more standard ales and lagers but you should opt for a Belgian beer if you visit the Dove. The food was more disappointing though. The menu has an odd mix of English, Flemish, and Thai options. I went for a Thai curry but it wasn't good. Not spicy, very yellow and creamy. An odd menu mix rarely bodes well.

Vegan fish and chips??!! Sign me up!…read more Trying to immerse myself in the British culture as much as possible on my trip to London, I decided that I wanted to try fish and chips. Problem is, I don't eat fish. The Dove came to the rescue. The "fish" and chips here is tofu wrapped in nori, that is then beer-battered and fried. Three big pieces are served over a bed of chips, with a side of smashed minted peas and tartar sauce. Being the dumb vegetarian that I am, I thought the tartar sauce was just another side after already eating two of my tofu pieces. Oops. I thought everything was great, and the portion size was huge. The nori definitely gave the "fish" an interesting flavor. The menu here has a few other vegetarian options, as well as non-veg if you're into that. It's pretty big, but when I came here, almost everyone was just drinking rather than eating. The dining area is separate, with very friendly and attentive servers. If you're looking for some yummy vegetarian pub fare, I definitely recommend coming here!
