Dishes include hearty rice bowls such as the Halloumi Shakshuka,  burgers such as The Plant-Street Burger; plant-based protein-packed patty, roasted garlic and herb vegan mayo, lettuce, tomato, cheez, gherkins perfectly paired with Mac ‘n Greens – creamy 3-cheese mac, Maple Greens (kale, broccoli, mangetout) and crispy herbed breadcrumbs.

4. For a New Collab: Honest Burgers x Brindisa

What: Honest Burgers has teamed up with its friends over at Brindisa to launch the limited-edition BARCELONA burger, available exclusively at Honest Burgers until 31st May.

Eat: An Honest first, the BARCELONA combines Honest beef with cult favourite Torres Jamón Ibérico crisps, born and bred in Barcelona – hence the burger‘s name – and brought to the UK by British food hero Brindisa, which is credited with bringing the best Spanish produce to the UK since the eighties.  The burger is also topped with manchego cheese, grilled onions, bravas sauce, rocket and confit garlic mayo for an Anglo-Spanish hybrid that combines the best of Spanish tapas ingredients with the crunchy joy of a British crisp sandwich. Served with Honest‘s homemade rosemary salted chips as standard, the burger comes in at £13.

Where: Locations here 

5. For a New Opening: Keff

What: Keff has moved into a bricks and mortar site at Camden Market’s North Yard,  offering hot and cold takeaway including a fabulous ‘pita toasties’ menu alongside salads and dips to take away.

Eat: Co-founder Yoram Janowski created Keff during lockdown together with his business partner, Adi Frost, a childhood friend and a former TV director specialising in food programmes. Adi and Yoram have taken the idea of a simple British toastie and elevated it using their famous pillowy pita breads alongside cheeses such as feta, kaschkval and a homemade vegan cheese paired with ingredients such as black olives tapenade, matbucha, tomato in olive oil and some of his famous salads.  All the toasties come with a choice of garlic sauce, tomato sauce with garlic or harissa mayo.

Where: North Yard, Camden Market, Chalk Farm Rd, London NW1 8AH
