A few weeks ago, I put the call out to London bloggers: What's your idea of a perfect Saturday in London? This American girl who likes food and London but not cooking wined and dined her way around town and wrote about it here in the Londonelicious post that kicked it all off.
Others quickly followed, posting their idea of a perfect Saturday in London. Some, not surprisingly, were a little heavy on the restaurants. But whether you've always lived in London, or whether you're just visiting for the weekend and want to experience London as a local, here's a little London guide for all of your Saturdays. Now get yourself out there and explore!
ML at SPAstic, Tales from a London Spa takes you around South Kensington and Notting Hill for a culture-filled day that ends in Holland Park.
Su-Lin at Tamarind & Thyme gets some culture AND shopping in as she trolls central London, with the riches she imagines.
Two entries from Mini-et-moi, a great site for modern mums in London. Sarah takes in Marylebone and The London Transport Museum while Michelle explores the South Bank, tots in tow.
Gourmet Chick hits all the foodie haunts–Ottolenghi, high tea at The Ritz, and Borough Market.
Danielle at Bloody Brilliant starts with a full English and then heads east to explore Brick Lane and Spitalfields.
Over at Gourmet Larder, Gregory begins his day in Borough and then works his way south through Clapham and Vauxhall.
Leah from Curiosity and The Cupcake arrives at Broadway Market bright and early and then enjoys a leisurely stroll through Victoria Park and east London.
Christine over at If Music Be The Food of Love has a musical slant to her day as she explores Hampstead and hits the town with her idol.
Blogger Priyanka begins at Cafe au Lait in Brixton and ends her day at Meson De Felipe and The Beehive in Borough.
Another blogger choosing to start around Borough Market. Helen at Food Stories kicks off her Saturday with a visit to Tower Bridge, wanders over to Borough and then ends her day with a visit to Shunt and by checking out Dinner in The Sky.
Lizzie of Hollow Legs is very busy geographically and takes us through Blackheath, North Greenwich, Trafalgar Square, Belgravia, Shoreditch, Whitechapel, and then back to Shoreditch.
Charles of London guide Tipped.co.uk and his own blog, Grumblemouse, spends his perfect day in Islington, The City, Borough Market, Greenwich, and Shoreditch. His colleague Joel goes in search of a good coffee and hangs out on Hampstead Heath.
And finally, new-to-the-scene Liz (of Liz Does London, not to be confused with Lizzie above) hits Chelsea, Hyde Park, Notting Hill, and Parson's Green.
I think that's everyone. Thanks to all the great bloggers who contributed their guide to the perfect London Saturday. Please feel free to republish this post on your own blog and add your own perfect Saturday…in London, or elsewhere.
