Hi!
I'm travelling to London for a week later this month and really want to visit a good bakery. Any recommendations?
I'm also looking for a good shop to pick up a few good baking utensils, again any recommendations would be a great help.
Many thanks in advance.

London is a fabulous place to eat good bread. Enjoy!

Ottolenghi
I'd second Ottolenghi - look out for the cakes and salads also!

Carl Shavitz in London
You might want to check out Carl Shavitz in London. He teaches classes and would know about baking utensils. He also supplies his bread to local restaurants. I took a class from him in Italy a year ago. He also teaches classes in the US. His contact information is on his website: Artisan-bread school.com.
Have a fabulous trip!
thanks everyone!
thanks everyone! I'm looking forward to checking out some of your suggestions.
