Deli & Delights

Well we’re not in Kansas (or Manchester or Brixton or Hull) anymore
You know you’re growing up to be part of a demographic where you’ve found a shop local to you that sells your favourite vegan raw basil pesto. (I’m not actually vegan; the pesto is just wonderful!)
You know that you’ve found indulgence when you’ve found a shop that sells tea in pillows rather than bags.
You know when you’ve found love when you’ve found a shop that sells organic lime and tequila marmalade.
The place is just outside Highgate Underground station and one of the first places I shopped when I first moved here. The place is small, not particularly pretentious but very artisan and supplies more simple things such as a small selection of frozen foods and toiletries.
I try not to come here as I do tend to raid the antipasti and the weird and wonderful marmalade. So much quality so much temptation and worth a visit.

I come here for the Lindt chocolates. My favorite chocolates cover an entire wall in this deli. It’s a Lindt wonderland, really. They do have carry a lot of other foods: sandwiches, pretty dry pastas, various sauces, breads and much more.
Definitely worth a visit if you’re passing by or in the Highgate area.

There is Lindt chocolate at Deli and Delights. I thought I saw this woman from a documentary about MI6 here.
I was grooving to the Highgate frequency when I stopped in here to get a spinanch/​hummus sandwhich and a soy shake,
This store isn’t that overpriced considering the location across the street from Highgate Wood.
Deli and Delights has a nice selection of Blue Dragon soup, Seggiano sauce (makers of the best pesto sauce around) and loads of expensive chocolates.
I felt fabulous shopping here.
