"Hummus, a pineapple, and a tin of beans with little sausages. That’s what we picked up the last time we went to our corner shop looking for solo dinner inspiration. But that’ll never happen at Persepolis. This Persian shop, deli, and restaurant serves the people of Peckham (and beyond) a range of vegetarian and vegan dishes that are both brilliantly flavoured and priced. It’s perfect for a healthy solo lunch or early dinner, especially as the three-plate mezze is a tenner." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
