Breakfast dining goes international in London

One of the best food trends to make its way across the Atlantic to London is the resurgence of breakfast. Restaurants open earlier and menus are a panoply of eggs, granola and porridges. Breakfast in the city has come into its own, with a slew of international restaurants now offering their own take on this quintessential English meal.

This Indian diner draws its inspiration from the "Irani" cafes of Mumbai that sprung up in the early 20th century and attracted people from all walks of life. Its bacon naan roll has reached iconic status, thanks to its baked-to-order naan, cream cheese and herb and chilli tomato jam filling and crisp and streaky smoked bacon.

The roll's sweetish aftertaste is down to bacon cured for five days and cold-smoked over oak chips. Add free-range eggs, or opt for the eggs-only version if you don't eat meat.
