Eating out in London


TYPICAL DISHES
There is a great variety of exotic meals due to the influence of the British immigrants from the old colonies. Let's have a look at the most typical dishes:
  • Fish and Chips
  • Roast Beef
  • Meat Pies (Shepherd's, chicken, mushroom, kidney)
  • Sausages and mash potatoes
  • Apple pie
  • English breakfast
RESTAURANTS
We can find different types of restaurants:
  • Fast food
  • Exotic meals
  • Fish and chips stalls
  • Sandwiches shops
  • Pubs
The most typical meal can be found in British Pubs. It consists on a salad, as a starter, a main course, which can be compared to a "plato combinado", and finally a dessert. This can be the healthier option and also reasonably cheap.

TEA TIME
Tradicionally tea time is from 3 to 5 in the afternoon. Nowadays it is very trendy to have tea in one of the luxurious hotels that offer a great variety of teas and pastries. We recommend old fashioned Hotel Claridge's tea room.
