Food Scene

This is the restaurant almost directly behind Florence Works, but they won't let you in the backdoor so you'll have to go round to UpperSt. to find the entrance! Yotam Ottolenghi's chic very fashionable arab/israeli restaurant which grabs flavours from around North Africa and the Middle East. Also known for its variety of interesting salads and gorgeous cakes.

This is one of my favourite good value lunch places- only £8.95 for their 2 course special -and I have never taken anyone there who hasn't loved it. Food is Middle Eastern/ Turkish. Laid back atmosphere and always busy, but you don't normally need to book.
