Traditional Sweet Dishes
Sticky Toffee Pudding
Sticky Toffee Pudding uses chopped dates in a moist sponge that soaks up hot toffee sauce, so each spoonful tastes like warm caramel and it is often served with custard or ice cream for contrast.
Spotted Dick
The 'spotted' in Spotted Dick refers to the raisins or currants studding the suet pudding, and when served with hot custard it became a staple comfort food in British school dinners.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Fish and Chips
Fish and chips became London's working-class fast meal in the 19th century when fried fish recipes brought by Jewish immigrants met local chip shops, and during both world wars the dish remained widely available and lifted public spirits.
Sunday Roast
The Sunday Roast grew from the practical habit of roasting a large joint after church, and it became a weekly ritual that brings families together with roast meat, potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy.
Traditional Beverages
Tea
Afternoon tea was popularized in London by the Duchess of Bedford in the 1840s as a light meal between lunch and dinner, and it turned into an elegant social occasion complete with finger sandwiches and cakes.
Pimm's
Pimm's No. 1 was invented in 1823 as a gin-based health tonic, and today its fruity cup is inseparable from London summers and events like Wimbledon.
Ale
London helped invent porter in the 18th century to quench the thirst of dockworkers and porters, and the modern campaign to protect cask-conditioned real ale grew from a love of that living, unfiltered beer.

Colpito dalle dimensioni ma deluso dal servizio nei ristoranti, code ovunque e i prezzi sembravano gonfiati rispetto ad altre città UE.

Musei e parchi fantastici, il cibo è pazzesco, ma preparati alle folle e al caffè caro. Quattro giorni sono bastati.

La scena street food mi ha lasciato a bocca aperta, dai curry indiani al sourdough artigianale. Il portafoglio ha sentito il colpo, ma lo stomaco era felice.

Due settimane sono troppe per noi, un lungo weekend o 4-5 giorni bastano per le cose principali. Energia da grande città, sembrava accogliente ma di fretta.

Evita i ristoranti vicino alle stazioni principali, cammina due isolati e trova pub più economici. Borough Market è ottimo la mattina; nel tardo pomeriggio le bancarelle vendono gli avanzi più a buon prezzo.
