Paddington Bear at London’s Paddington Station (OneTravel)
Paddington Bear at London’s Paddington Station
OneTravel, Nov 01, 2011
Of course, the most logical place to look for London’s most beloved bear would be at Paddington Station, where the famous children’s book character was originally discovered with a note attached to his coat reading “please look after this bear, thank you.” And for visitors arriving on flights to London from abroad there’s a very good chance you will pass through this station, especially if you’re flying in or out of Heathrow International Airport. Paddington Station is the London terminal for the Heathrow Express, offering the quickest and easiest way to get to and from London and its busiest airport.

In Pictures: eat.st Street Food Market at King’s Cross
Londonist, October 31, 2011 at 15:30 pm
King’s Boulevard isn’t just London’s newest street. It’s also host of London’s newest street market. Britain’s first (and probably only?) street food collective, eat.st launched “eat.st at King’s Cross” on this fledgling thoroughfare a few weeks back, scooping up a couple of other firsts in the process. The market is the first dedicated street food zone in London and serves as the first permanent base for the eat.st collective.

Street Market Focus: London’s Borough Market
OneTravel, Oct 21, 2011
It’s a very good idea to come hungry as a trip to Borough Market is an opportunity to try a wide range of treats. Strong contenders for the best raclette, falafel, hot dogs, wild boar sausage, paella etc etc etc may all be devoured here. And should you fail to find anything that strikes your fancy offered at a vendor’s stall, the many restaurants, cafes and pubs expand the options to ensure all tastes are catered to (sushi, oysters, fine chocolate – you name it!).

Perfectly Grilled Meat and More at Argentine Steakhouse A La Cruz (CheapOair)
Perfectly Grilled Meat and More at Argentine Steakhouse A La Cruz
CheapOair, October 20, 2011
Being situated in the villagey neighbourhood of Clerkenwell – home to some of London’s oldest and most celebrated pubs, a few nearby Michelin starred and celebrity chef restaurants, numerous coffee snob cafes and a vibrant foodie approved street market – means that if an eatery intends to stay in business around here, they’ve got to at least be as good as the competition. A La Cruz is possibly the best place for a steak in this area of Central London and arguably in the whole of the city. Everything else on the menu is delicious too – the empanadas, the cooked provolone, the lamb … oooh the slow cooked juicy, tender lamb!

De La Panza is a few-week’s-old Argentine bodegón in the heart of De Beauvoir Town. Headed up by front of house Gaston Carrano, who helped with the set up of Broadway Market’s Buen Ayre Restaurant and Santa Maria del Sur in Battersea, it’s an attractive and elegant restaurant and, judging from the buzz during our Friday night visit, a welcome addition to the dining options on Southgate Road.
