The HUNT Guides are city guidebooks highlighting “authentic eating, shopping and lifestyle experiences” in a range of popular destinations with listings that are all independently owned. I contributed to The Hunt London, Third Edition which came out earlier this year. It was a delight to write about some of my favourite indie enterprises in London.
I’m not the author. That distinction goes to David Leppan, “a treasure hunter, a collector, and a hunter-gatherer” with a “passion for what’s unique, rare and handmade.” However, a flip through the guide yields a decent sized chunk of recs and wordage by yours truly (loads of foodie faves of course!). Contributing to the book was a lot of fun. I loved having the chance to help spread the word about a range of small businesses with products and services that reflect the dedication and hard work of actual individuals and families.
The content of The Hunt London is organised by neighbourhood and features a smartly curated list of quality venues worth keeping in mind. This handy pocket sized reference would be an ideal gift (ho ho ho!) for anybody planning a visit to London and is a great resource for Londoners keen to hone their knowledge of this wonderful and sometimes unwieldy city while supporting local independent business.
