Ashlyns Farm Shop ** £25

A farm in Essex where they serve local produce (vegetables and meat). Better than having these in a typical pub, but the fact that they kept the doors closed for the outdoor patio despite the amazing weather is beyond me.

Belgique *** £10

This place in Wanstead has an amazing outdoor patio, a perfect reminder of similar outdoor cafes in sunny Greece. Not to be missed for a relaxing afternoon.

Guglee *** £28

Very nice Indian place, with amazing lassis and dishes that go beyond the traditional fares you would find in a typical indian restaurant. We went there with the twins parents-to-be, what a night!

Kin ** £10

Yet another two-star Thai located in a really nice road (Leather lane) along with what seems an unlimited number of other food/lunch places. 

Isarn ** £25

Decent Thai place in Islington, they offer a range of traditional Thai dishes but no Thai Ice Tea unfortunately. Good choice if you are around the neighborhood. 

Gioberti Ristorante ** £20

Quite decent neighborhood italian place in Wanstead. Pizza was nice (thin crust), but the appetizers and salad just average. It does get packed though.

The Breakfast Club ** £15

The vibe in this awesome breakfast place is great. Young and vibrant, including a refrigerator that leads to the bar downstairs. However, the food is decent but not great, hence the two-star rating only.

Benito's Hat * £15

Cheap mexican place off Goodge Street, but it is not up to par with The Flying Burrito. It was fun though because we had lunch with the rest of the twin-expecting couples from UCLH.
