My favorite restaurant in London since Burma is where I'm from. The closest one is in Shoreditch but they just opened one in the West End as well. It's the most unique food and absolutely something you will crave again. Awesome cocktails as well!

Huge park about 40 min walk on the canal from our house. On Sunday's they have a fabulous food truck market. Take a blanket and go enjoy the many different types of cuisine. Also great for a walk/run. There is also a cafe there all week long with breakfast/lunch options by a large lake full of swans and ducks.

Most popular Indian spot by far. Don't be intimidated by the line, it moves fast. The place is huge and really beautifully decorated. Try the chai tea and chicken ruby.
They have one in the west end as well.

One of the most popular markets in London. Bustling, esp on the weekends. I actually prefer to go during the week but it's chock full of every fruit, cheese, veggies, food stalls, spices, fresh shucked oysters and anything else you could dream of.

The Regent's Canal runs a long way. Depending on how much you love to walk you can reach Broadway Market/London Fields/Flower Market on Sundays (20 min), Angel/Islington High Street (20 min), Victoria Park (40 min), Camden Market ( 1 hr). Lots of little cafe's along the way and a nice way to get off the busy streets of London.
