At Umu, London's most ambitious kaiseki restaurant, Kubota goes to extraordinary lengths to bring a Kyoto accent to the land of fish and chips. That means flying in speciality vegetables and Kyoto's soft water for the signature clear soup. He trawls from Iceland to Madagascar for fantastic fish. Grated Shizuoka wasabi - not that fake electric-green paste - accompanies the tsukuri, a sashimi course elaborately composed on handmade ceramics. Fragrant matsutake mushrooms evoke autumn, while Kobe beef melts in the mouth like foie gras. Dishes like sesame tofu are nods...

The Co-op is set up on a points system, so that residents must fulfill a certain amount of points every two weeks by signing up to do chores like preparing soup and salad for the night’s dinner, washing dishes, and cleaning the bathrooms. Vegetarian dinner is served at 6:30 nightly, but the kitchen is always open for a quick sandwich or snack. Decisions to order produce or buy a new appliance are all made cooperatively.
