This is one of the most charming pubs we know in London. Tucked away in the heart of Kensington, this London classic is super charming thanks to tons of flowers and local art on the walls. It's perfect for a Sunday roast by the fireplace.

Hjem is a cute Danish coffee shop with extremely delicious organic smørrebrøds with traditional toppings. Not in the mood for a full meal? Grab one of their delicious home baked Danish delights like kanelbullar.

Min Jiang is an authentic Chinese restaurant located on the 10th floor of the Royal Garden Hotel with extraordinary views over Hyde Park and the city skyline. Order the excellent dim sum and their signature Peking duck.

Exhibitions here take in Japanese culture from all angles. There could be replica bowls of noodles and plates of sushi that look good enough to eat or bright Pop Art designs painted straight on to the walls. Either way, restaurant Akira upstairs serves beautiful bento boxes and the shop is packed with gift ideas – from animal- topped Legami pens to edamame-shaped chopstick rests. Keep your eyes peeled for designer Paul Smith who visits regularly for inspiration.
