Jenny and I enjoyed a tasty, healthy and – best of all – cheap lunch at Innocent’s pop-up cafe in Shoreditch today.

Housed in the historic Tramshed building, the café is decorated with growing lettuces, tomatoes, herbs and strings of fairy lights. For just £5, you can enjoy two nutritious courses, providing your five a day in one meal.

From today’s menu, we tried the beetroot and horseradish pierogi, tomato toasts, root vegetables with goat’s curd, and sweet potato brik. All were delicious. We didn’t have time for dessert, but our neighbours’ spiced fruit sorbet and rice pudding brûlée looked amazing.

If you’re inspired to make your own healthy food when you get home, you can pick up a free pack of recipe cards as you leave. The café was packed today and places are filling up fast, so book now if you want to try it for yourself.

Innocent Café is in Shoreditch until 8 October 2010. If you’re a London foodie, don’t miss London Restaurant Festival, which kicks off on Monday - book your Festival Menus now!

Riverford Farm are known for their organic vegetable boxes, which are delivered to homes up and down the country. Now the Devon growers have taken to the road with their Travelling Field Kitchen, serving fresh, healthy meals inside a beautiful big yurt.

Riverford owner Guy Watson said the idea - which came to him “in a drunken haze by the reservoir down by the farm” - is “all about celebrating great vegetables”. It’s also an opportunity for his staff to “mix with customers and understand what makes an acceptable cabbage”.

Last night I popped into the temporary restaurant, currently at Freightliners City Farm in Islington, to sample some of their produce.

Dinner is served at long communal tables, so be prepared to talk to your neighbours! I had the veggie option, a lovely pastry and squash dish, accompanied by plates of colourful vegetables from Riverford farms, which were shared among the table.

For dessert, we got to choose from a counter full of amazing homemade puddings. I chose the gorgeous pavlova, which was covered in enormous strawberries. One fellow diner obviously found the choice too difficult: she asked for two desserts.

There are many reasons why you should visit the Travelling Field Kitchen:  for the experience of dining in a yurt, the friendly atmosphere and of course the delicious food. It’s only in London until Sunday so catch it while you can!

Riverford’s Travelling Field Kitchen is at Freightliners City Farm until 20 June 2010

Taking place at Vicky Park’s lakeside Pavilion Café, this Friday night supper club is a chance for the owners to showcase a finer side of their dining before Elliot’s restaurant opens in Borough Market in October.

We were treated to glasses of bubbly and canapés, while overlooking the picturesque lakeside setting complete with water fountain and fluffy ducklings, before being shown to our seats at communal tables.

Each week chef Isaac McHale will create a different five-course menu using seasonal and locally-sourced ingredients. Fruit and vegetables are bought from Chegworth Valley Farm in Kent, rare breed meats come from The Ginger Pig butchers up the road, and herbs are grown right on the pavilion’s porch. A different wine to match each dish is chosen by local wine store Bottle Apostle.

We started with a vibrant plate of asparagus with mussels in tarragon sauce and orange edible flowers. Cornish mackerel with Celtic mustard and dill-pickled cucumbers came next, followed by a main course of shoulder of Old Spot pork with broccoli and spring onions.

Then, interestingly, not one but two desserts. The first, which our waitress confirmed was more of an amuse-bouche, was an inventive goat’s milk foam with blackberry jam and Belgian speculoos (sweet-spiced biscuits).

Lastly, we finished with English strawberries with sour cream and elderflower and a deliciously creamy flat white from Square Mile, and given a jar of homemade cherry jam to take home.

The whole event felt fabulously local, community spirited and unique and I now can’t wait to visit Elliot’s restaurant when it opens in Autumn.

Elliot’s In The Park dinners are on Friday nights only and booking up fast but if you want to bag one of the few remaining seats call the Pavilion Café on +44 (0)20 8980 0030 between 8am and 5pm.
