Suggestions for London

wrote: Hi everyone; I just booked a trip to England. I was supposed to go to Ireland in June with three friends, but I decided I really wanted to spend some time in London and Norwich instead. My friends and I will still meet up in Liverpool because we have tickets to a show there that we bought online back in October. Anyway, I will be spending two nights in London. The purpose of this visit is to see the usual tourist sites such as Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, the Millennium Wheel, etc. and shoot as many digital photos as my camera's memory card will hold. I figured that one night, I will treat myself to a leisurely dinner and take the load off my feet for a little while. I have a hotel room reserved close to Victoria Station. I am wondering if any of my rfc friends can suggest a nice, but not too expensive and fairly quiet restaurant where I can sit and enjoy a nice meal and read a local newspaper. No Indian restaurants please. Something very British is what I am interested in. The hotel where I will be staying offers a pretty good continental breakfast, so I am not interested in finding any breakfast spots, but if anyone has any suggestions on a good lunch place in that area, let me know. I intend to visit relatives who live in Norwich when I leave London. They'll probably want to make me dinner for the two nights I am there and tell me their favorite lunch place in Norwich. When I get to Liverpool, I mainly want to see the Beetles Museum. I will be meeting three friends and I figure I will just tag along with whatever they want to do, but I expect them to be interested in seeing the Beetles Museum too. By the way, if any of you want to see the photos from this trip, write to me via private email. My email address is in the header of this message. I will have a laptop and Internet access during my trip and two digital cameras. I maintain a mailing list of about 150 people who have asked me to share my photos with them. I would be glad to add any rfc friends to my list. I am also on facebook, and I will post my photos there too. 2 suggestions (not places to eat) - Check out Congo Kid's London restaurant reviews www.congokid.com Post your question to to rec.travel.europe |
