Close on the heels of their success in establishing an eco-friendly restaurant at Acorn House, the dynamic duo of Arthur Potts-Dawson and Jamie Grainger-Smith have pulled out all the stops with this Orsman Road venture, Water House. With careful planning and deep conviction, they have brought London's greenest eating place to a location right beside the Regent's Canal in Shoreditch.

Every element, from décor to the menu is conscious of its carbon footprint but despite these accessories, taste is what matters and fortunately the food is above reproof. Consider a selection of pumpkin, mushroom and artichoke casserole with cheese and sage dumplings, pan-fried pollock with curried mussels and crispy belly pork with potatoes and caramelised fennel. Red wine poached pear with honey ice cream and amaretto and prune rice pudding offer an interesting finish and organic wines top the drinks list. Here's a place where you can put aside burgeoning worries about the environment and just enjoy your meal.
