A good cupboard is a quiet flex. Not the fridge, not the table, not the thing you plate up and photograph - the shelf behind the door, stocked with the jars and tins you reach for without thinking. The 12 brands below have made an art of the everyday: the dressing, the bean, the tin of crisps, done properly rather than just done. Buy a few, and dinner starts doing more work before you've turned the hob on.

12 Pantry Brands to Have in Your Cupboard

A grocery shop doesn't normally do much - strip lighting, a trolley with one bad wheel, a queue for the tills. Which makes it all the more striking when one gets this right. The ones on this list weren't built for convenience: they're set inside a nineteenth-century Milanese delicatessen, an Essendon warehouse turned Italian food theatre, and a Tribeca corner that's made the weekly shop feel like a lifestyle statement. Whether you're stocking up or just passing through, these are worth a diversion.

Put the kettle on and spend five minutes with Holly Middleton-Joseph, head chef and director of Hausu in Peckham, and you quickly sense that cooking, for her, is rooted in instinct, heritage and honesty. Raised across cultures, with Chinese and Trinidadian roots woven into everything she makes, she came up through some of London's most respected kitchens before stumbling, almost accidentally, into a restaurant of her own.
After a phone call out of the blue and a month of building something from scratch on a shoestring, Hausu was born - and with it, a DIY spirit that still runs through every corner of the place. Now a National Restaurant Awards Rising Star, Holly reflects on cooking without a label, the new late-night bar upstairs, and why the food always has to feel true to her first.
