In The 500 Hidden Secrets of London Londoner Tom Greig selected his favourite addresses and secrets ; such as the bakery on Brick Lane that's open 24-hours and that's famous for its salt-beef beigels ; a former department store that is now a vintage and antiques market ; an award-winning theatre in Hackney Wick that seats just 110 and has a corrugated iron roof ; or the historic street where Hugenot settlers first lived and is now a home to famous artists.
