Best places to eat out in Ealing
Ealing has vending machines that will appease any palate, from teeny cafes to fine dining restaurants. Here are the best places to eat in Ealing:
1. Charlotte's W5: A beautifully refurbished Victorian stable block with a modern European menu using seasonal ingredients and casual friendly atmosphere. Famous for Sunday brunch.
2. The Grove: This gastropub is located near Ealing Broadway and hosts very modern British food. It boasts celebrity status for lunches, crafted beers, and a pretty large al fresco terrace.
3. Santa Maria Pizzeria: This place's specialty lies in the Neapolitan-style pizzas made here. It turned out to be one of the most favored places among the locals. Their pizzas are indeed of high quality, as specialists cook them and then heat them up in a wood-fired oven.
4. Coda di Volpe: Family-run, authentic Southern Italian restaurant. This place is known for its friendly service and added convenience of homemade pasta.
5. Farm W5: The famous farm-to-table place to head into for a plate of contemporary British food, done in style and made with locally procured produce. Great option to eat out for brunch or dinner.
6. Tiger Bay: A fairly popular Middle Eastern restaurant narrowed down to a few Middle Eastern cuisines such as Lebanese and Persian. It is bustling with the flavors of kebabs, amazing mezze platters, and generally a relaxed atmosphere.
7. The Red Lion: This is a classic, historic pub dating back to the 17th century that offers classic British pub food alongside a handpicked selection of cask ales and craft beers—just about the finest way to experience Britain properly.
8. Katsute 100: A contemporary Japanese venue highly noted for sushi and sashimi dishes. Fresh seafood is fostered upon with an entirely new outlook toward Japanese cuisine.
9. Santa Maria Del Sur: An Argentine steakhouse serving premium cuts of meat, grilling it in a charcoal oven—gives a delicious carnivorous feel in a cozier atmosphere.
10. April's Kitchen: This is simply an attractive little cafà with its homemade cakes and pastries; the brunch here happens to be fantastic. April's Kitchen works just fine for breakfast or afternoon tea.
These eateries are bridges of Ealing, which contains diverse cuisine for every taste and occasion, from global flavors to local British specialties.
History of Earls Court
Earl's Court in inner west London, originates to the time of the Norman Conquest, when the de Veres held a court at the manor. These were named the Earls of Oxford in 1141, hence, according to Cyril M. Harris author of What's in a Name?: Origins of Station Names on the London Underground, came about the name Earl's Court.
Originally fertile farmland, Earl's Court's development emerged in the mid to late 1800s, after the arrival of the railway line (the station was built in 1869). The area officially became part of London in 1889, when the London County Council was formed and the city's boundaries extended. The area became famous for the Earl's Court Exhibition Grounds, set up by John Robinson Whitley in 1887, featured rides and an arena which hosted Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. A giant wheel was added in 1897.
After the Second World War, many Polish immigrants arrived in the area. This led to Earl's Court Road's name 'The Danzig Corridor'. In the late 1960s, large numbers of Australian and New Zealand travellers, led to the new nickname 'Kangaroo Valley'. The area is now becoming very gentrified.

Local history and culture in Earls Court
Earls Court is a district within London's Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, characterized by rich history and a variety of cultural backgrounds.
History: The real development of Earls Court started in the mid-19th century with the actual transformation of this agricultural land into a residential and commercial hub. Growth was fast-tracked with the arrival of the railway in the 1860s, whereby central London was brought closer and rapid urbanization became possible.
So many Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that Earls Court is still architecturally dominated by them to this day. Besides, it has also become very famous as a cultural and entertainment district due to theEarls Court Exhibition Centre, which was, during its years of activity, one of the country's major international exhibition venues until it was closed a few years ago for redevelopment.
Culture: Earls Court is also characteristic with its rich culture and vibrant society. It's a place that has attracted all kinds of people from different origins with different backgrounds over the past years, hence giving it a touch of cosmopolitanism. Earls Court features traditional pubs, international restaurants, and quite a good number of ethnic restaurants that represent the multicultural population.
Culturally, Earls Court is also quite famous for music and the locales of nightlife. Troubadour has been a place steeped in historical music since the 1950s when it was launched, with those performing legends at that time, people like Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix.
Community cultural diversity is further underlined by several annual, ethnic, and cultural events, festivals, and localized initiatives which commemorate the area's heritage and also bond its residents in a common bond.
More specifically, the historical and cultural factor of Earls Court has been an extremely successful mixture of the Victorian charm with the dynamism of today, hence finding a place for multifarious London.
