New On My London Guide: Megan’s, No 32 The Old Town, Oriole, The Barbary Notting Hill, The Ivy Tower Bridge

It’s time for another update of my London Guide! If you are new to my blog, I used to live in Boston and now I have lived in London for ten years. I have a great Boston Guide which I update regularly with my trips home and I also update my London Guide monthly. Both guides are completely free and all are places I have personally visited, with my honest feedback. If this little old blog ever gets big enough to enjoy a comped meal, I’ll make sure to disclose it.

Now that we have covered that housekeeping, let’s get into the good stuff. Namely – five new restaurants on my London Guide, including Megan’s at the Battersea Power Station, No 32 The Old Town in Clapham, Oriole, The Barbary Notting Hill, and The Ivy Tower Bridge. Let’s dig in!

New On My London Guide: The Elgin, BananaTree, Il Trillo, Azteca, and Bluebird

Even with all of the upheaval this year, I am still enjoying many lovely meals out in London. The restaurant industry has been hit hard by COVID-19, and I believe it is important to support local restaurants, as the government guidelines allow.

If you’re new to The SavvyBostonian Blog, I keep a massive London Guide which links to all of my recommended places in London. From restaurants to excellent cocktails, things to do, and more, I’ve got you covered. For my latest additions to my London Guide, I’m adding:

The Elgin – A lovely local pub in Maida Vale
BananaTree – A Pan-Asian chain with delicious food
Il Trillo – A chic Italian restaurant with outstanding food
Azteca – A Mexican restaurant with dangerously good cocktails
Bluebird – A trendy Chelsea spot made famous by reality TV

Read on – but be warned, the food photos will make you hungry!

Do you ever stop and realize that you have only been to a certain city for work? As in, you rush in, have your meetings, maybe have a nice meal or two, and then dash home? This has been my relationship with LA! Well, until October 2019.

As a result, I wanted to share a blog post recapping nine places I discovered and loved. There’s also a YouTube video for this post, so depending on how you prefer to consume content, you can also check that out to see more of the spots I am recommending!
