London feeds itself / edited by Jonathan Nunn.

"London may be the most exciting place in the world to eat - a city where a new landmark restaurant opens each week, where sprawling food halls and central neighbour-hoods contain the cuisines of every country in the world. Yet, this London is not where most Londoners usually eat. There is another version of London that exists in its marginal spaces, where food culture flourishes in parks and allotments, in warehouses and industrial estates, along viaducts and A-roads, in baths and in libraries. In a city of rising rents, of gentrification, and displace-ment, this book shows that the true centres of London food culture can be found in its outer boroughs and in ever more creative uses of space, eked out by the people who make up the city. 26 essays about 26 different build-ings, structures and public amenities in which London's everyday food culture can be found, seen through the eyes of writers, architects, journalists and politicians - all accompanied by over 125 guides to some of the city's best vernacular restaurants across all 33 London boroughs."
