Ivan Massow

Top businessman and Chairman of the ICA, Ivan has a few gastronomic delights hidden up his sleeve - and now he's sharing them with you.

Philip Owens at the ICA

OK, so I'm chairman of the ICA, but Philip's food is great. All organic, it always gets great reviews and frequently changes ethnic styles, according to what is exhibiting at the ICA. It's cheap,too.

Isola

Oliver Peyton offers gourmet Italian food in plush modernist surroundings. My favourite dining area is downstairs where the food is served in small courses which you share. It also has the largest Italian wine list in London (over 300 labels), 64 of which can be drunk by the glass!

The Quality Chop House

Still a favourite after all these years and still famous for its Bang Bang chicken and salmon fishcakes. A good, honest experience.

River Cafe

There's always something nice about being cooked for by a woman, and the food at the River Caf? is always great. Unpretentious and friendly, it's the place to take a date if you want them to think you're a nice person.
