When I started this blog I didn't want to include food shops, but I'll make an exception for Lina Stores. In a city full of Italian shops, it is near the top, with excellent pasta, meat, cheese and bread, and they even make their own ravioli every day. Highly recommended!

The Hive Honey Shop boasts that it sells the best honey in London. I can't personally endorse that, but I can say that this wonderful shop, on Northcote Road, is one of the most interesting. It sells everything related to honey and beeswax, has an incredible aroma, and even features a working beehive inside the shop, where you can see bees at work between two panes of glass.
