Eschewing the flotsam of rubber boots, trolleys and countless knows how many chthonic creepies, Arthur Potts Dawson, a restaurateur from the Kings Cross area, foraged for elderflower and dandelions, and sweetened his concoction with honey sourced from a conveniently located canalside beekeeper. The resultant delicacy has proved a popular choice at his Acorn House in King's Cross, a restaurant that bills itself as London's first eco-friendly diner. If you want to try it, best act quick - it is only available for the next few days, until supplies run out.

Coming soon, possibly: the Queen's Park Quiche, in which former footballer and quietly-spoken chef Gordon Ramsey will compile the detritus of a match at QPR's Loftus Road stadium - including clods of mud, missing teeth and half-masticated steak and onion pies lobbed from the terraces - into a delightful and nutritious meal. You heard it here first! (and last).
