FOOD



This might be one of my favorite posts, because food is one of my favorite subjects.  When we moved here, I thought our food selection would be primarily comprised of English pubs and middle eastern restaurants.  Although this is true (I may have an entire post on just the names of the pubs I've seen so far!!! :) ), I've noticed a variety of eateries.  We Americans have our Burger King, Domino's, Subway, McDonalds, Starbucks, and KFC.

Domino's
Subway


McDonald's and Starbucks Coffee
(On Fleet Street across from Freshfields)

Kentucky Fried Chicken
While the Brits have their Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Pret A Manger, Wasabi, Twinings, and Pizza Express.

Admittedly, neither Kevin nor I have made it to all of these places, but Pret A Manger has fantastic, fresh orange juice. Pizza Express has a "Spicy Guiseppe" pizza that isn't very spicy but is pretty good.  Twinings has excellent "English Breakfast" tea (referred to as simply "Breakfast" tea).  Kevin and I had hoped to try EAT today (pictured at the top of the page) which boasts of really yummy soups, but unfortunately it was closed.  Instead we went to Paul's where Kevin had a sausage and roquefort sandwich and I had brie, butter and lettuce on a sesame baguette (yum!!).
