The very first time I came into this cafe was the day we were first looking for a flat to rent in Pimlico. We had gone to visit Dolphin Square and ended up on Lupus Street. I saw this cute cafe with a queue so I knew I had to go.
After weeks of Pret subscription, the actual real cafe latte here was an absolute delight. The staff are wonderful, friendly and it's these kind of cafes that made me fall in love with London.
Next time, I had a lunch and I'm a salmon lover so I had to get a juicy piece of Salmon. Their salmon preparation is outstanding. First, the quality of the fish is just terrific and the delicious honey, soy glaze is so good. Their greek salad is crave worthy and I haven't even had a sandwich here yet.
Some of my proudest London moments involve the Deli. First, when I introuduced my Italian friend who told me this was a legit spot and proceeded to show me some of her favorite pastas and ingredients to buy. I felt that built my clout as a aspiring Londoner. Another proud moment was taking someone who grew up in Victoria and never heard of the deli before, he now goes there every week.
This is an absolute gem of a place and sadly, now that I'm in LA, I can't go here for my morning coffee or favorite lunch.
When I'm back, this is one of the first places I want to go.
And I forgot, the tiramisu, in the cold case, get that too.
This place always makes me and my belly smile.
