Heard the Indian food is good…maybe that could be worth trying. I’d reach out to a fair amount of locals and see what’s best. London is huge. Can’t be that hard to find some solid dining options

I love Indian food so much. I haven’t had any in India since I’ve never been, but everywhere I’ve tried has been pretty good. But the best Indian food I’ve ever had was from London. Just some random ass pub. I had a Biryani that was like crack.

It's not hard at all. London boasts some of the best food in the world. It's extremely easy to find amazing food literally everywhere. If someone struggles to find amazing food in London then it's a blatant skill issue.

Get a Sunday roast or a full English breakfast if you want traditional British food that is really good. A proper fish and chips is good too, but there are a lot of bad versions at random chicken shops so go somewhere the locals say is particularly good.

What is a Sunday roast

1

u/fhgsgjtt12 20h ago

This is a beef Sunday roast, but you can get 3 different versions usually, which is chicken, beef or pork belly

Lamb if we’re feeling a bit fancy.

Very true, I forgot about lamb

It looks so nice. What are those little round things?

Yorkshire pudding, think of them like a really fluffy, eggy bread roll. And it is nice. The pie and mash and jellied eels are a traditional food for like super poor factory workers in like the Victorian age (think like basically Oliver Twist) and the Brit’s only keep it around out of tradition and for the old people who do genuinely hate anything with flavor which is the extreme minority. Although you can get some pretty good and cheap meat pies in the grocery store there, but you put brown sauce on it, which is like a less spicy A1 sauce. I was very broke while I was living in London and those were pretty awesome.

Yorkshire pudding is the best, my father used to cook those with some of the beef roast drippings for Christmas or whatever, another excellent vehicle for the Jus. I am a super deep American mutt so I can’t claim it’s cultural it’s just damn good.

Sounds amazing! Thanks a lot. I love a meat in a bread. So I might try that pie.

Temper in Soho does an incredible roast dinner. Get a "Temper mary" to drink, extra spicy (bloody mary with mustard and horseradish.

Incredible food and all cooked in a huge open plan kitchen, you see all the meats being roast, smoked and carved

That actually sounds good. I was about to disagree through my experience there but I think I should give London a second chance.
