your favorite places that are not so touristy?
MORWENNA LYTTON COBBOLD: For curry, avoid brick
lane and go to Tayyabs, Whitechapel – The best curry I’ve ever eaten. Get there
early (as in 5pm) or you’ll find a queue all the way down the street. If you
live near by, get take-away as you can go right to the front of the queue.
