Bermondsey Street is London's best-kept secret — galleries, restaurants, a Victorian bathhouse turned cocktail bar, and a cheesemonger who is arguably the best in the country. We do all of it in 2 hours.

Brick Lane, Spitalfields, Columbia Road — the best street food London does, on a Saturday morning, before the Instagram crowds arrive. We start at 8am and we're done before it gets hectic.

Not the tourist lap of Borough Market — a three-hour deep dive with tastings at seven stalls, a visit with a cheese producer who drives down from Somerset every Friday, and lunch at a counter that has a 45-minute wait if you don't know where to stand.
