A few weeks ago, I promised a write-up of my walk through Islington. Here it is ... Islington is by far one of London's most eclectic, abet expensive, and interesting of London villages. Avoid the immediate area around Angel and head straight for Camden Passage to the lively antique market and design stores. Here you’re likely to pick up that set of bone-handed cutlery that you’ve always longed for or some champagne-frosted art deco glassware. Amidst the old, you’ll also discover some modern finds like Loop for beautiful hand-crafted knitwear or the effervescent and fifties nostalgic cafe, Issy’s Milk Way. Along Upper Street is design central. Aria is a must see for its well curated selection of home wares as is relative new comer, Folklore. End your day with a cocktail at the speakeasy inspired The Bar With No Name on Colebrook Row. EAT
