Arancina

Notting Hill & West London


With a perennial scrum around it thanks to its whiff of freshly baked pizza, Arancina sells Sicilian snacks and has half an orange Fiat Cinquecento (500; the original '60s version) in the window. Try the arancine (fried balls of rice with fillings; £3.30) or a slice of perfect pizza (£4.20), a craft beer (£4.50) or a glass of red (£5.20).

For those wondering where the other half of the Fiat Cinquecento is – it's in the other branch of Arancina in Boxpark Croydon. The car conveyed the two brothers for five days from Italy to the UK, where they set up Arancina, back in the 1990s.
