"Under the arches off Walworth Road you’ll find La Barra, a basement Colombian spot that’s best known for a plate of fried chicken that has Colonel Sanders looking for the nearest job centre. The pica pollo is made up of crunching pieces of chicken (drumsticks, thighs, wings—the lot) that only need a drizzle of lemon and a dip of homemade chilli sauce, if you’re that way inclined. Breakfasts of rice, fried egg, pork belly, and chorizo are served from 9am and, given it's open daily, there’s plenty of time to work through La Barra’s extensive menu." - jake missing, sinead cranna
