The world's most famous 'secret museum', the SJSM can't be described without using the words bric-a-brac, labyrinthine, or cluttered. A must-see for anyone who hasn't been.
Dishoom’s a convivial brasserie that loosely styles itself after the ‘Irani’ cafés of Mumbai. What you won’t find in India is such an abundance of bacon and sausage: there’s even a sausage naan roll. Read more.

Scotch eggs are the best. Rest of the food is delicious and always served with a great smile to make you feel at home. Dog friendly too, and perfect after a walk in Hampstead Heath
Interesting farmer's market open Sunday 10 - 2. Personal favourite is the chilli, garlic and gyoza stand. Otherwise excellent for fresh vegetables.
The Koshari is very tasty, perfect as a snack before a movie or a long walk! The small size should be more than enough for one person. Watch out for the spicy sauces (the mild one is perfect).

Make sure you stand in the Yard for £5. Gallery seating is very fun, but terrible lack of legroom if you're over 6 feet tall. Macbeth is an awesome production.
Food and service was brilliant! Order the eel and tomato starter, short rib pancakes, and chilli egg drop crab. We will be back!
