London Design Festival: where to eat
LDF 2017 is the biggest design movement of the year, but its sheer scale can be overwhelming. When it all gets too much, slip into one (impeccably designed) chair and take stock of each London Design Festival district's food.
There are nine Design Districts this year spread over the capital: Brompton, Chelsea, Islington, Clerkenwell, Shoreditch, Mayfair, Brixton, Pimlico Road and Bankside: here's where to stop and refresh at each one. Make sure to note down the special LDF offers too.
Did you need an excuse to visit Ottolenghi? The small plates, baked goods, salads and Mediterranean fare from the Israeli-born British chef are foodie heaven.
But if you're just after somewhere for a quick drink, this year, Belanger is offering a complimentary glass of Crémant d’Alsace or Meteor beer on presentation of an Islington Design District map.
*Belanger: One drink per person, subject to availability from 16th - 24th September 2017. 9 Islington Green, London, N1 2XH.
