Four Seasons, London

In between "we should try other place" and "we need to have a bit", we ended up at Four Seasons restaurant in Chinatown London. Again. We tried a different branch nearby in Chinatown if that counts at all as a different restaurant that we tried. We had a platter of soy chicken, barbecue pork and roast pork and a bowl of wanton soup and a bowl of rice. Perfect for cold January night.So good.

Duck & Waffle, London

We went there for the food, the view and all the hypes that we have been reading about. Our reservation happened to be on the day when it was wet and the visibility was poor. The amazing view from the restaurant that people write and talk about was not happening. At some point, the visibility was very poor that we barely able to see the buildings in the vicinity.

The food was a mixed for us, some were good, the others were not for us. 

We are happy to have this checked off our bucket list.

Busaba Oxford Circus, London

This was the only Busaba trip we had during our last trip to London and we had it at different location. It was our first time dining there and I basically let DH have his favorites, the same dishes we always order when we go to any Thai restaurants.  we had Pad Thai, fried wings and Green Curry Chicken with a bowl of rice. Almost always the same. 

Lunch At Dishoom, Covent Garden

Back to the time when we were in London nearly a month ago. (I can't believe that February is almost over!). We were back at Dishoom. The restaurant offers wonderful Bombay traditional street food and seems to be really busy all the time. 

These are the dishes for the four of us plus Vegetable Samosas that we ordered a little bit later and I forgot take a snap of them.

Breakfast At Bill's

For one of our breakfasts in London, we went to the nearest Bill's. It was cold and wet morning, the place just opened and we were there with only a couple of tables occupied.

I ordered their Vegetarian breakfast which has poached eggs while DH had his pancakes. It was a good breakfast, it's like something that I would have at home.

 

Burger & Lobster

We did not quite plan to eat here but we saw the place on the way to church and our mass finished after 12PM. It was lunch time.

Just the two of us, we did not really want to have too much lobster for health reason, so we had burger. I am not sure if we get a "better" or worse cholesterol booster, but it was our choice. And we enjoyed our choice, so much.

We shared one burger (above) and one lobster burger (below).  They came with lots of chips.

Borough Market, London Trip

It was Lunar New Year's eve and we were in London. Our plan for the day, because it was Friday, was to go to Borough Market. I was told that Friday was one of the best days to go there, because there are more, if not all, shops are open. We came with open mind and hungry stomach. It was exciting as usual.

Pho Lunch At Pho, London

It was our last day in London, we were flying off in the evening. Cool weather, gloomy London, made us long for some soup for lunch. Pho was our destination for lunch.

Both of us had Pho brisket, but I added meatballs on mine, because I love meatballs on my pho. We also shared Spring rolls, filled with crab meat, pork and prawn. The food was not bad. 

A Christmas Parade

London, Saturday, 28 November 2015.  We were  walking  to our appointment and we saw that the traffic on Regent St. was halted.  Apparently there was going to be Hamley's toy parade. We tried to avoid the main street and opted for a smaller one that led us to Liberty. Somehow, by the time we got there, the parade started. We did not mind that and we stopped to enjoy the parade and took some pictures. It was a good fun.  

Honest Burger, London

Thanks to Miss P's recommendation, we went up and down looking for an Honest Burger outlet nearby after failing to get our stomach satisfied eating the pork buns from Bao. This was our second lunch. What can I say but yummmmmmm. ........  Burger was good, chips were great. 

Bao, London

I had Bao in my list of places to eat in London and we made it the day before we left London. We tried to get there before 12, because this place is known to be crowded at peak times. The restaurant is small, we knew that.  Somehow, despite our effort, we could not make it and we had to queue. So we did, hoping that it wouldn't be too long and promising that if it took too long, we would leave. The wait was not terribly long and we got our seats finally. 

We merely wanted to try first, so we order two buns to share, one Classic and one Pork Confit.  They all were small. The waiter advised us to order two each, but we did not want to, because we wanted to know how good the food was first. We also ordered scallops, because we wanted to. Actually it's DH that wanted them. They were all just fine for us, not too extraordinary. We were still hungry so we ordered a bowl of Guinea Fowl rice and shared it again. It was just alright too, so we decided to leave. We were still hungry and we decided to have another lunch. Yes. Two lunches again.
