London GTG
 

Just reporting back on a lovely Fodorite lunch in China Town today with Julian, Mandy, Dennis and Thom. Dennis and Thom came into town from Heathrow as they had a few hours before their onward flight to Lusaka. Julian came down from Oxford and Mandy and I are based in London already.

Was lovely to meet everyone and put a few more faces to names!

Looking forward to your trip report and link to photos! ;-)

ROFL

No photos taken (oops) and no trip report... I could report back on food I guess! :D

Hi Michael,

Too bad I didn't have my camera -- Mandy and I went to The Parlour at Sketch for tea afterwards, and the decor in that place would have put Singita Lembombo to shame! The loos were particulalry psychdelic...imagine a modern art gallery crossed with a five-star place designed by someone on acid.

The food was excellent, though...almost too pretty to eat, but we managed!

Here's the website if you're curious:

Cheers,

I take it fish and chips was not the order of the day. :)

At the Chinese restaurant Mandy, Dennis and Thom all went for sweet and sour pork from the regular menu. Julian and I had dim sum - lots of little bursts of flavour from lobster dumplings to bbq pork puff pastries to squid rings to paper wrapped prawns to pork dumplings and a couple of others... YUM!

Oh man, I just finished lunch and now I'm hungry all over again!

No photos??? No fair!!!!!! ;-)

Glad you all had fun!
