LOCAL GEM
Delina
Shepherd’s Bush
Blink and you could miss it, but head under the arches in Shepherd’s Bush Market and look for Delina, an authentic Ethiopian & Eritrean restaurant. Run by Nazareth and her welcoming team, come here for freshly roasted Ethiopian coffee (try their coffee ceremony) and a variety of perfectly spiced, flavourful dishes from Ethiopia; they cater well for plant-based, vegan and vegetarian, too. And as it’s in the bustling market with indoor/outdoor seating, the atmosphere is great, and it couldn’t be more local. They also do private parties, cooking classes, you can order from Uber eats and buy coffee beans to take away.
