London - NOTTING HILL/ PORTOBELLO (bars + restaurants)
My curated mix of sophisticated neighbourhood bars and adventurous restaurants rooted in casual elegance — think subterranean cocktail dens, plant-filled garden rooms, and kitchens firing up seasonal, low-intervention cuisine. The list reflects Notting Hill’s dual spirit: refined and trendy with a playful undercurrent of experimental drink and dining culture, anchored in unpretentious spaces that still feel distinctive and local.
