Yum Bun Street Food was another place that I really wanted to eat at when we visited Street Feast in Hawker House at Canada Water in London. It was that bright fluorescent sign and the promise of some stuffed Bao Buns that had me most excited. I do love a Bao, I think it is…

Street Feast at Hawker House – White Men Can’t Jerk
White Men Can’t Jerk were one of the Street Food Traders we headed to when we visited Street Feast at Hawker House over at Canada Water in London. They were serving up Jerk Chicken plates and some Jerk Chicken burgers and we were keen to try that out! They say that; “We pride ourselves…
Golden Union for Haddock, Chips and Mushy Peas in Soho London
Over the past days I had eaten a lot of street food and was in the mood for some traditional British Fare, something comforting and something filling. Fish and Chips was to be the order of the day, but where to go? As an out of towner I had no real ideas where to go so…
Hash at Borough Market – “Mac and Gumbo”
Hash at Borough Market was selling some of my favourite foods in the whole wide world. They had Gumbo, they had pulled pork shoulder, they had mac and cheese combined with gumbo and also with pulled pork. OMG this is not fair at all. I mean what is a man supposed to do or choose?…
Tongue and Brisket on Leather Lane, A London Deli featuring Chicken Schnitzel, Roast Turkey, Salt Beef, basically ALL the good stuff!
Tongue and Brisket on Leather Lane in Smithfield near Holburn Station is a Deli serving many of the Jewish Classics. Some people describe it as a New York style Deli, but that is unfair to the history of the area. This was the sort of place that we found in London long before those guys over the pond learnt how…

The Pit Stop Café at Berwick Street Market – Fantastic Fried Rice and Malaysian Curry
The Pitstop Café Berwick Street Van was the street food vendor with the longest queue when we visited Berwick Street Market for lunch last week. To be fair, we walked up and down the street checking everyone else out, but we ended up walking back to the small white caravan surrounded by the hungry horde. There were many…
The Perfectionist’s café – All Day Breakfast before the flight
The Perfectionists’ Café in Heathrow was apparently ‘Inspired by Heston Blumenthal’s In Search of Perfection TV series, in which he examined every aspect of our favourite dishes in order to make them as delicious as possible’. I liked the look of it as I meandered my way through Heathrow Terminal 2 looking for someone to sustain…
Sunday Roast at the Golden Fleece in York
The Golden Fleece in York looks like, and is, a Proper Old English Pub, the perfect place to take my friend Jennifer from Chicago to when we were on a day trip to York. I mean it was a Sunday and that means one thing to us lot this side of the pond, Sunday Roast…
Old Silk Mill serving Tasty Burgers in Derby
The Silk Mill Ale and Cider House in Derby seems to be a pretty decent place to stop off for a pint of beer and a decent plate of pub food. They have a whole lot of tasty sounding stuff on the menu. The menu seems to get updated quite often so even since I…
