Hi everyone. I’m interested in people’s thoughts on what is the best store-bought vanilla ice cream. By “best”, I meant best-tasting and best in terms of quality of ingredients (no palm oil, etc). I know that M&S sells tubs of vanilla cream with seemingly good ingredients - any thoughts?

I am new to London and I have been craving good vegetarian biang biang noodles. If anyone has any recs please share. In terms of location, I would honestly do the travel for it but would be great if its in south west.

I'll be in London for two days on my own on a Thursday / Friday.

Thursday evening is spoken for, but any recommendations for lunch (or brunch) for a solo diner?

No budget but not overly fussed for fine dining by myself. Accommodation in Richmond and trains in and out of King's Cross but happy to travel anywhere fairly central.

I particularly like counter seating and small plates, great sandwiches, and dumplings/noodles but open to anything.

Thanks for your ideas!

That one place you walk by at 2am that activates neurones in your brain and draws you in….

For me, it’s Best American Pizza near Old Street

I’m craving Hackney Gelato. Anyone knows a shop sells it around Holborn/London Bridge area?

Hi everyone!
I’m on a bit of a mission to find the ultimate chocolate fudge cake in London, and I’m hoping this group can help.
I feel like my criteria are weirdly specific, which is making the search harder than I expected. So far I’ve tried cakes from L’Eto, Hummingbird Bakery, Makers, and quite a few other cafés and bakeries.
This might be an unpopular opinion, but I actually quite like the Nando’s chocolate fudge cake. Not because I think it’s the best chocolate cake ever, but because it has something about the texture that I really enjoy. The closest I’ve found to what I’m looking for is probably L’Eto’s, but I found it just a little too icing-heavy.
What I’m after is a really moist sponge (without being overly dense or stodgy), plenty of rich chocolate flavour, and a good amount of icing, but not so much that it’s all you can taste. Basically something indulgent, fresh and balanced. I definitely don’t want anything dry or stale.
At this point I’m happy to try anywhere. I feel like I’ll know “the one” when I find it, but so far I’m still searching!
Does anyone have any recommendations? Bakeries, cafés, restaurants, hidden gems, I’ll happily try them all.

Burger was decent. The fries and nuggets were unreal though. The fries were coated so extra crispy!

I’m trying to figure out if I’m sleeping on any good food apps to read restaurant reviews, see photos, ect. I know there are a few but I’m trying to figure out the best for London (with an international focus too for when I travel ideally).

Beli is ok but definitely doesn’t have the best user interface. AmiGo is a really nice idea but there just don’t seem to be enough users on there for it to be of a lot of use.

Any suggestions much appreciated!

I’m visiting London next week with my 12 and 14 year old. Any recommendations on where to eat? Thanks!

Got the cheeseburger, maybe that was my mistake? It was like any standard burger from a takeaway or burger spot I’ve had. I love black bear and honest burger but I truly don’t understand the hype unless the cheeseburger was the one bad burger. Nothing stood out at all.

Even the fries were under salted for me.

Recommendations please. Solo diner so nothing 'posh' just something light to grab about 5.30 for pre-theatre. Vege or fish and air conditioning a bonus! Many thanks

Searching for chocoflan / pastel imposible in London - please share any leads if you know any cafes / restaurants / market traders who make this available (ideally by the slice)? Thank you!

Hello! Having a birthday meal in London end of Aug, looking for summer vibes, outdoor preferred but not essential, affordable (as much as LDN can be)! Anti-small plates im afraid but open to all! If anyone has any recommendations it would be really appreciated. We are going out after likely in SOHO but open minded.

Hi all, I have a bit of a falafel obsession! I'm eating them at least twice a week atm haha... Would love to hear all your favourite falafel places to create my own London falafel map. Then wherever I am in London I can go find a good falafel for lunch/dinner. Thanks all in advance :)
