One thing I missed during the lockdown here in the UK was eating out at some of my favourite restaurants. However, lots of London’s top restaurants and bakeries now have their own cookbooks which means when we’re not able to eta out we can re-create their signature recipes at home. I’ve rounded up lots of cookbooks from some of London’s top restaurants and listed them below with links to buy. Myself, I baked the sticky toffee pudding from the Hawksmoor cookbook and it was absolutely EPIC!
