"Whether you’re a flexitarian, humanitarian, or disciplinarian, you should be eating at Bubala, a vegetarian restaurant on Commercial Street. Everything on the Middle Eastern menu at this understated spot is delicious, from the charred laffa flatbread and dips, to a scoop of tahini and date ice cream. It’s good-value too: you can have an excellent lunch for under £30, or get the Bubala Knows Best evening set menu for £44 for a little bit of everything." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
