Title: London people and good food Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Sunday, August 9, 2009, 19:19:10 Right i would like some serious suggestions for a nice place to eat in central london, not too expensive but good food and nice atmosphere, Im taking out my ex girlfriends parents who are over from mexico, my ex passed away a couple of months ago so this is there trying to get through the grief process, therefore i want to treat them to something classy but fuck spending a small fortune on it.
thanks in advance. Title: Re: London people and good food Post by: Simon Pieman on Sunday, August 9, 2009, 19:27:17 If you want an amazing curry then Tayyab's is the best I've ever had. Bit tricky to find but well worth it and dirt cheap (it's bring your own booze which might make you feel a bit trampy but if you bring some wine they'll have glasses and put it on to chill if you're waiting for a table). It is always busy - if you don't get there early you will have to queue for a table!
It's a respectable place but not fancy, so if you're expecting top notch class surroundings I wouldn't go there though.

You can get lunch at a triple Michelin star restaurant for that. Title: Re: London people and good food Post by: Chubbs on Monday, August 10, 2009, 12:24:02 As what Batch said, why not check out one of Gordon Ramseys restaurants, i believe his main one is triple michelin star
