We're big fans of letting experts be the experts, especially when it means asking for a few good recommendations when you're visiting someone else's town.

While we're here in London we'll be eating, drinking and gallery-ing our way through the city based on the suggestions of some of our favorite SPACE designers. First up, at the referral of the team: a trip to Nopi, the small-plates jewel of the crazy-popular Ottolenghi family.

Going to London soon? You're going to need to know about this beautiful Soho-area spot, and you're going to need the rest of the Roksanda team's London List. Not going to London anytime soon? Get your hands on the Nopi cookbook, pictured above. There's every chance it's going to be as popular (and bloggable, 'Grammable, brag-able) as the mothership original.

Fans of British chef Yotam Ottolenghi know that he's a genius when it comes to blending Mediterranean flavors with local, seasonal ingredients -and particularly when it comes to shareable salads, spreads and sides. Oh, and the bread. The bread!

Two of us made a quick meal-between-shows of four small shared plates on a Saturday afternoon when, blissfully, lunch melts right into dinner and you can sort of while away the day inside this lovely sanctuary.

Highly recommended, along with this London List which comes straight from the Serbian-born designer's inner circle.
