Having said that, my favourite place to eat in London is a little Kebab shop in Southwark. It's brilliant.

I remember an American gentleman I knew who ranted at me about how bad British food was. He kept going on about how awful the meal was he'd had when he was in London. Turned out he'd gone to Harry Ramsden's in Soho...Honestly, he's basing his views on a fast food chip shop in the most touristy part of the entire city. That's like basing a dislike of the English language on the fact that 'The DaVinci Code' wasn't a very good novel.

Now, where did John Paul go? I'm sure he was around here when we started...
