London

London’s culinary transformation over the last few decades has culminated in it becoming one of the world’s undisputedly great taste-making cities. The role of London as a meeting point has made it both a melting pot and a bastion of tradition. You can still find old staples like fish and chips, but London is now home to innovative young chefs experimenting with classical standards and new techniques. Its vast offerings have something for every mood, taste, and wallet.

There is nothing that I trust more when I travel than World of Mouth. There's plenty of places in the guide and all of them are good in their own way. World of Mouth is made by people who care - that's why I've never been disappointed with the recommendations in the guide.
