Randomness Guide to London Menu

Cake shop and cafe in Thornton Heath, just a few doors along from Thornton Heath Station. They have another branch on Selhurst Road in South Norwood, SE25 6XU.

They make wedding cakes and other decorated cakes for things like birthdays, but more importantly for this guide the shop also functions as a cafe, selling tea, coffee, soft drinks, some Turkish savouries, and of course baklava, cakes and biscuits. They're remarkably cheap. For example, as of mid-2011, coffee (which normally comes with a free small slice of sponge cake) plus cream doughnut plus big slice of chocolate cake is four quid.

They also sell some Turkish groceries — nuts, dried fruit, sausages, some tinned goods, Turkish delight and the like.
