"There’s a really great little restaurant-slash-wine bar called Little Duck The Picklery — so delish. I always recommend this. They do these delicious drinking vinegars which are really yummy. The food is great: loads of pickles and the kimchi is really yummy."

"Dalston Curve Garden is nice for a little bit of an inner city break. Especially good if you’ve got kids and you want to take them somewhere to just chill. You can get a nice cup of chai there and have a seat, and they’ve got wood fires going in winter. It’s an all year round thing."
