At St. Pancras station we still had to wait for ‘boarding’ of the Eurostar. Fortunately, there are plenty of shops and St. Pancras station at one of these shops were these cupcakes really calling ‘eat me’. Fortunately we had a few pounds left and that we have spent it on these two cupcakes from Peyton & Byrne. If you come across this shop in London, certainly take a look!

The Subway restaurant chain is global, even our hometown in Holland has 1! In London, they have many more. We have tried a brand new sandwich ‘Hot Chicken Gravy and stuffing. ” A sandwich with warm chicken with gravy and filling. A good sandwich in any case!

When you visiting London ‘Fish’ n Chips is something you have to eat. This is what we took for dinner in the restaurant of our hotel. Delicious, and we aren’t that much fish.

After a whole day walking and taking the bus in London, we have chosen to simply stay at the hotel to eat. This was a good choice. Michel opted for a typical English courts ‘Bangers and Mash’, mashed potatoes (with leeks), sausages and gravy. Personally I chose Italian Pasta with Meat Balls in Pomodori sauce. This was linguine with Italian spiced meatballs with tomato sauce pomodori. Very nice!

During a walk through London we arrived at this small Italian restaurant. In retrospect this proved to belong to a larger chain of Italian restaurants. The food was not good and not bad, I was able to make the dishes themselves at home. Michel opted for a pizza ‘Quattro Stagioni’ the four seasons, pepperoni, smoked ham, roasted mushrooms and artichokes, and I choose the Penne Pollo Crema e-chicken, Pancetta bacon, roasted peppers, red onion and penne, baked in the oven in a white whine sauce and cream sauce.

Across London, they’re too ‘flyer’, even for this restaurant. The menu looked good, so went we to lunch. Here we choose both for a ‘gourmet burgers’. A homemade hamburger with fries. It was a real quality burger.

This seemed a funny restaurant, really wierd interior in Scottish (green and red), but actually it was a setback. Mushy fries, dry chicken (also a little too hard grilled). Michel wanted a beef bourgignion but they could not serve it so then he took the Chicken Alabama (chicken legs in a herd) and I chose the Chicken Chasseur (chicken breast with a kind of red wine sauce). Not to be recommended.
