Yeah, it's true. But it's really coming up in the world - Bloc, Cups and Jars, Pinch. And while it's not hip, the opening of Aldi was a landmark moment - getting food round here before then was a nightmare.
I'll be honest, I love it here. I lived in Stokey and Clapton and I always felt a bit rough and ready around those perello-munching middle class types. But then I lived in Tower Hamlets and Dagenham and I felt a bit too poncy for those chicken-shop, flat roof pub types. This area is a lovely spot if you're part hipster, part scumbag.
