One Pub, Two Pubs, Three Pubs, Tums
Last Sunday we took our lovely Nashville friends to the Columbia Road Flower Market before hitting The Marksman of Shoreditch for a proper pub lunch.
With full bellies we wandered to Holborn for a round at The Ship. (Ok, I may have had sparkling apple juice and a hand full of Tums. Whatever.)
After drinks, we visited Whittard Tea in the Covent Garden Piazza. Of course, being in proximity to Covent Garden warranted a trip to Porterhouse Pub.
A short walk away to Soho and we couldn’t resist our favorite little Japanese skewer restaurant Bincho Yakitori. I wish I had photos of the food! Drew and I had the tofu – I had the very yummy vegetable rice as well. Yeah, that’s my party pooping water. Laugh if you must.
After dinner we retired to the flat for ice cream, chocolate cupcakes, video games, and planning for J & Q’s trip to Paris the next day (Monday). Yes, Paris and back in one day. Crazy. (Shakes head.) They got a cab at 3am, flew at 8, and arrived back at the flat around 11pm with yummy Parisian treats. I must admit that I had not done much in their absence besides surviving my first day back at work. Once again, I was very thankful to be with friends.
love to hear about all this yummy food.

Let’s face it, when the roller coaster car is upside down on the tracks as much as it is right side up, the rope tethering me to this reality is laced with antacid therapy. Besides, these Londoners can hold their drink – and this polite (don’t snigger!) southern girl can’t keep up! [...]
