Between Highbury and Enfield...........I live in that area..........oh......  All of London is fine, just enjoy walking down Brixton High St at about 1am. It's really trendy with loads of cafes. Come out the station turn right and you'll see what I mean.

And don't forget to go strolling through Millwall, preferably wearing a West Ham shirt.

Re: pimpin the south,west,east and north.
stay clear of east london, its soooooooooo run down!
North, West and the south of London is were you should be at, preferably the North, nothing beats North London. South London comes close though. Clapham, Brixton all treny places down south!
Camden is a must see place, great clubs and bars etc!
The west of London is for the people with the most cash, if thats you, then west london is the place you should be!
But overall, you got to come up to North London!
and don't forget to get a stadium tour of highbury, with it being the last season and all!

Re: pimpin the south,west,east and north.

and the area ain't that far from highbury only a 5 min bus ride!

Yeah, Rick knows all the great restaurants in London, especially Chinese.  If you're travelling in Europe, ask him for hotel recommendations too.
