Haggerston, One Dish at a Time
by Jamie Klingler
A culinary tour for those not afraid to get their hands a bit dirty
None of these places are for the faint-hearted. They’re not fancy, there are no tablecloths. They’re rough and ready. They’re authentic, and their food is amazing.
Jamie is the founder of National Burger Day and National Pizza Day, she also created London Seafood Festival for Battersea Power Station through her company Creative Influence Alliance.

A Romantic Walk Down the Hackney Riviera

First Bite at Berber & Q
Your first taste of Haggerston will take place at Berber & Q, a hipster joint established in a former taxi repair shop. In the mood for a vegetarian treat? Have a go at their one-of-a-kind cauliflower shawarma, served with pomegranate, pine nuts, and tahini.
It’s smoky, it’s dark, it’s sexy, and it’s absolutely delicious! I also love that you share the food and eat with your hands; it is a great way to start a meal.

Arrive 7-8pm
Second Bite at Chick ’n’ Sours
Your night continues at Chick ’n’ Sours, also known as London’s temple of fried chicken.
The chef, Carl Clarke, makes the most amazing fried chicken in the world, and serves it with sour drinks. It’s the best place on Earth!

Arrive 9-10pm
Third Bite at Rotorino
Rotorino is the perfect place to grab a last little bite and complete your Haggerston culinary tour. It’s a South Italian restaurant somehow reminiscent of an old Brooklyn bar that serves phenomenal pasta.
This venue looks really sexy, and they’re also very good at recommending cocktails!

Arrive 10-11pm
Wrapping It All Up at The Talbot
The night wouldn’t be complete without a bit of music and a pint. Here, you and your date lay back in the relaxed atmosphere and make plans to come back to Haggerston on your next night out.
This place is lovely. They have an outdoor terrace, a great beer selection, and the people there are very chill.
