I'm off to London in a few weeks

Any "must see" advice beyond the usual

We looking for a nice place to eat that won't cost the earth - near parliament, tower of london etc . . .

Kath's Cafe down the East End 

I went to Google that LOL

Stockpot is cheap and there's one quite near Trafalgar Square / Piccadilly: http://www.stockpotlondon.co.uk/restaurants.php

Looks good - cheers Peter

Whenever I'm in London, I pop in there

Don't think my mother could say the same... she now lives in there.

If you like chinese food..    specifically dim sum..    then this place does the best dim sum in London 

http://www.chuenchengku.co.uk/

it doesn't cost the earth..   & it just tastes so good!     At lunchtimes girls walk around with trolleys laden with dim sum..   you just point at what you want..   

So..  as its all ready cooked its very quick..     we can be in & out in under 40 mins 

I don't need the Neal's Yard apothecary, because we've got one in my town too. But the general Neal Street area is always worth an hour or two.

The menu on that website is for their full chinese meals...

there doesn't seem to be a dim sum menu on their site...  

I'm veggie - well i do eat fishy bits now and then

I'm a presbytarian or something LOL

Can i still hav DimSum ??

No good to veggies, but I like Biguns Ribs near Victoria station

Blimey Peter - that looks nice (and cheap). I shall bookmark that for the next time I am in London. Cheers
