"A good paratha is something we’d walk 20 minutes for. An excellent paratha, like the one at this South Indian restaurant, is something we’d cross the city for—especially after a break-up, even in the rain. Ganapati is a cosy restaurant in Peckham that’s perfect for embracing your feelings. Take a seat in the glass conservatory, hear the rain patter down on the roof, and point at the thaire vadai—a savoury lentil doughnut—on the menu if you’re avoiding human interaction. And because we are strong believers that bread is the secret to happiness, make sure you try one of their flaky Kerala parathas as well." - rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, heidi lauth beasley
