Ruben's Reubens' 3 Month Pop-up in Market Row, Brixton

Ruben's Reubens is a new 3 month pop-up at 10 Market Row, Brixton, in a small covered arcade famous for restaurants like the original Franco Manca.   Ruben's Reubens is the brainchild of Ruben Dawnay, who started cooking (& popping up) a bit before lockdown, and has since made a name for himself through lockdown deliveries, pop-ups, and collabs.  

The 3 month pop-up - scheduled to run til early 2024 - takes over a 2 story restaurant site, and has a menu featuring small plates - like the Kung pao-strami cauliflower (pictured) and of course lots of sandwiches, including the eponymous salt beef Reuben.


When - Weds-Sun til early 2024

Wednesday-Friday - 6pm-11pm

Saturday - 12pm-11pm

Sunday - 12pm-4pm

Where - 10 Market Row, Brixton, SW9 8LD

Barang Street Kitchen's Cambodian Residency at South London Louie in Camberwell


Barang Street Kitchen is currently cooking Cambodian at South London Louie, the cafe in the South London Gallery in Camberwell, SE5, Thursday to Saturday evenings until 22nd December 2023.


I visited on Thursday - the first night - and loved the food. I've been following chef Tom's progress for most of the year, through different pop-ups, events, and a supper club series at his home, but this was the first time I have eaten his food.


Tom fell in love with the cuisine on his first visit to Cambodia in 2017 & 2018, and has developed a menu that includes both grills - like the slow grilled chicken thigh, with Tuk Merik dipping sauce, and the aromatic & sour sausage - plus bigger plates like curries - I had the very fiery Kampot pepper curry w smoked pork cheek - full of fire, thanks to a mix of chillis and pepper 🌶 . Very fiery! 🔥🔥🔥

It's a great menu, and a great intro to Cambodian food. Lots of flavour, and lots of heat, if you want it!

When - Thurs-Sat evenings until 22nd December 2023

Where - South London Louie, the cafe inside the South London Gallery,  67 Peckham Rd, London SE5 8UH

Happy Endings' Pudding Hatch at the Pavilion Cafe in Victoria Park, E9



Now serving - Hot puddings to take away at the Happy Endings Pudding Hatch at the Pavilion Cafe in Victoria Park (by the lake), serving Fridays to Sundays for the winter.


Perfect for the cold weather, Happy Endings originally took over the hatch in the summer with their soft serve ice creams; you can still get an ice cream, but I'd really recommend the puds - both the sticky toffee, and the chocolate fudge, both served with fresh, hot custard 😋

Terri Mercieca set up Happy Endings about 10 years ago, and you can now find her puddings and ice cream sandwiches in lots of London's best delis.  

When - Fridays to Sundays

Fridays - 12pm-4pm

Sat & Sun - 12pm-5pm (ish)

Where - A hatch in the Pavilion Café, Victoria Park, Old Ford Rd., E9 7DE

(The cafe is next to the lake - see the map)
