The most elegant place to visit within Canary Wharf, offering a plethora of choice from its wonderful menu is undoubtedly Bokan.

The sirloin steak, creamy mashed potato, the 'Luna' cocktail, the breath-taking views and the exceptional service make Bokan a go to restaurant to visit if you are ever in the Canary Wharf area. Can hands down say this is the place where they serve the BEST steak in London!! **Top tip - If you book a seat for the restaurant, do ask for one by the window and try to get your table just in time for the sunset so you can enjoy stunning views of the capital whilst further enjoying a gorgeously prepared meal.

  8. Docklands is great!

  9. I love Poplar because it a very clean and quite area, I feel safe, whereas other areas seem a bit scary and dark and don't seem so safe, I also love my area because there are parks where children's can go and play and no one needs to be worried about them and I've been safely living in Poplar for 18 years.

  10. Fantastic views of both city side and the River Thames. 21st century luxury buildings suitable for the next generation.
