Ottolenghi
Chef Yotam Ottolenghi, known for TV appearances, a food column in the papers, and popular books, runs a few casual spots to pick up his celebrated Middle East-inflected concoctions that lean on clean and sometimes surprising ingredient clashes like roasted cauliflower with mustard, cherry tomatoes and crispy capers or lamb kofta with caramelized black lime onions. It’s higher-priced than most casual meals, but the flavor combinations are bright, succulent, and memorable, and you may very well be seduced into buying one of his cookbooks.
This spot, hidden down a network of centuries-old narrow lanes south of Spitalfields Market, is the largest location; the Marylebone outpost (63–65 Marylebone Lane, W1; Tube: Bond Street) is a 10-minute stroll up from Oxford Street and geared more for take-aways.
