Filed under : Europe Travel Guide




Fully equipped with picnic table and folding chairs, the scenario over here feels like it is like a shack on a beach.  The ground floor here has been converted into a fun factory, in east London. The wine here is served in regular juice glasses and the food is regular bar snacks. Yes, I am talking about almonds and radish with anchovies.  A young crowd generally occupies most of the seats and benches on the walkways that run all along the Regent Canal. There is a thin water line that passes in between the industrial area here.  This place is quite the siesta zone. During the afternoon, this place has a very village feel to it.

In east London, the area is filled with artists, anarchists and even immigrants. The neighborhood and places like Shore ditch, Bethnal Green and Hackney Wick, is where these artists work and sometimes even live as well.  Apart from all this, the east London area is also known for its venues to play shop and eat! The streets in east London are quite serene and tranquil.  This place is very different from actual central London. Also this place is known for its self sufficiency.

You will be able to find many hotels, shops, markets and restaurants to choose from. The loft project is a private club which invites acclaimed chefs to cook meals in a nice airy apartment for selected guests. The curator of the project says that you don’t need to go to the rest of London as you have the best of it here as well.

Rochelle Canteen is a restaurant that is only open for lunch. The food here is very English. You get dishes like fresh peas salad, pavas and pea shoots. The whole sole is sautéed in butter and then is served with cucumber and fennel.  This place has elegance to it. You will find people who meet each other for lunch and catch up with each other.

There is a small specialty shop called Leila’s shop which is a small specialty store with wooden shelves and they dry sausages and nougat that is imported from Isfahan in Iran. Famous cookbook author Anissa Helou holds cooking classes in a nearby loft. The environment is such that it seems as though the cities are gentle are everybody here is quite friendly.

Once you go down Red Church Street, you will notice that the streets are getting busier. You will also find different boutiques like the Caravan and the Hostel. There is also a boundary hotel and restaurant that has been made by the famous hotelier Terence Conran. This place has opened just last year. Also, the shore ditch house; which is a part of the Sotho house; is a hotel that has opened quite recently. A soot gray private artists has his residence deigned by a conceptual architect called David Adjaye. There the roof of the building seems as though it hovers at night as the interior lights that shine on it from below give it an amazing effect.
